    If \[A=\left[ \begin{matrix}    2 & 1 & 0  \\    0 & 2 & 1  \\    1 & 0 & 2  \\ \end{matrix} \right],\]then \[|adj\,A|\]is equal to

    A)  \[0\]                                    

    B)  \[9\]

    C)  \[\frac{1}{9}\]                                  

    D)  \[81\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    Given, \[A=\left[ \begin{matrix}    2 & 1 & 0  \\    0 & 2 & 1  \\    1 & 0 & 2  \\ \end{matrix} \right]\] \[{{C}_{11}}=4,\] \[{{C}_{12}}=1,\] \[{{C}_{13}}=-2\] \[{{C}_{21}}=-2,\] \[{{C}_{22}}=4,\] \[{{C}_{23}}=1\] \[{{C}_{31}}=1,\] \[{{C}_{32}}=-2,\] \[{{C}_{33}}=4\] \[\therefore \] \[adj\,(A)=\left[ \begin{matrix}    4 & 1 & -2  \\    -2 & 4 & 1  \\    1 & -2 & 4  \\ \end{matrix} \right]\]                 \[=\left[ \begin{matrix}    4 & -2 & 1  \\    1 & 4 & -2  \\    -2 & 1 & 4  \\ \end{matrix} \right]\] \[\therefore \] \[|adj\,|A|=4(16+2)+2(4-4)+(1+8)\]                 \[=72+0+9=81\]
