If A is an invertible matrix of order 2, then det (A–1) is equal to


If A is an invertible matrix of order 2, then det (A–1) is equal to
(A) det            (A)       (B)1/det (A)               (C) 1               (D) 0
We have the formula
AA-1 = I
Take determinant both side we get
|A ||A-1| = 1
Divide by |A| both side we get
|A-1| = 1/|A |
Hence option B is correct
