Q.4 Find the matrix of cofactors of matrix \(\begin{bmatrix} 5 & 2 \\ -1 & 6 \end{bmatrix}\).
Best answer
Answer: \(\begin{bmatrix} 6 & 1 \\ -2 & 5 \end{bmatrix}\)
Let \(A = \begin{bmatrix} 5 & 2 \\ -1 & 6 \end{bmatrix}\). Cofactor \(A_{ij} = (-1)^{i+j}M_{ij}\).
Matrix of cofactors \(= \begin{bmatrix} 6 & 1 \\ -2 & 5 \end{bmatrix}\).
