Sum

Solution 1

Given A (adj A = `[(8,0),(0,8)]`

we know that A(adj A) = |A| - I

|A|.I = `8[(1,0),(0,1)]`

`=> |A| = 8`

Solution 2

It is given that

A(adj A) = `[(8,0),(0,8)]`

⇒ A(adj A) = `8[(1,0),(0,1)]`

⇒ A(adj A) = 8I2          .....(1)

We know that for any square matrix A of order 2, we have

A(adj A) = |A|I2          .....(2)

From (1) and (2), we have

|A|=8
