Let $A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 2 & 7 \\ 4 & -2 & 8 \\ 3 & 8 & -7 \end{bmatrix}$ and $B = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & -5\alpha & 0 \\ 0 & 4\alpha & -2\alpha \end{bmatrix} + \text{adj}(A)$. If $\det(B) = 66$, then $\det(\text{adj}(A))$ equals:

Let $A$ be a $3 \times 3$ invertible matrix. If $|\operatorname{adj}(24A)| = |\operatorname{adj}(3 \operatorname{adj}(2A))|$,then $|A^2|$ is equal to

Let $X = \left\{ \begin{bmatrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{bmatrix} : a, b, c, d \in \mathbb{R} \right\}$. If $f: X \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is defined by $f(A) = \det(A)$ for all $A \in X$, then $f$ is

Let $A$ be a $2 \times 2$ matrix with real entries. Let $I$ be the $2 \times 2$ identity matrix. Denote by $tr(A)$ the sum of diagonal entries of $A$. Assume that $A^2 = I$.
Statement-$1$: If $A \neq I$ and $A \neq -I$,then $\det(A) = -1$.
Statement-$2$: If $A \neq I$ and $A \neq -I$,then $tr(A) \neq 0$.

If $B$ is a $3 \times 3$ matrix such that $B^2 = 0$,then $\det[(I + B)^{50} - 50B]$ is equal to

Let $A$ be a $2 \times 2$ matrix with real entries. Let $I$ be the $2 \times 2$ identity matrix. $\operatorname{Tr}(A)$ denotes the sum of diagonal entries of $A$. Assume that $A^2=I$.
