1. Definition and Examples





Cofactor of a matrix `(2 xx 2)`
`|A|=|[a,b],[c,d]|`
Cofactor of `a = +d`
Cofactor of `b = -c`
Cofactor of `c = -b`
Cofactor of `d = +a`
Cofactor of a matrix `(3 xx 3)`
`|A|=|[a,b,c],[d,e,f],[g,h,i]|`
Cofactor of `a = + |[e,f],[h,k]|`
Cofactor of `b = - |[d,f],[g,k]|`
Cofactor of `c = + |[d,e],[g,h]|`
Cofactor of `d = - |[b,c],[h,i]|`
Cofactor of `e = + |[a,c],[g,i]|`
Cofactor of `f = - |[a,b],[g,h]|`
Cofactor of `g = + |[b,c],[e,f]|`
Cofactor of `h = - |[a,c],[d,f]|`
Cofactor of `i = + |[a,b],[d,e]|`
`A=[[1,2,3],[4,5,6],[7,8,9]]`
Cofactor of `1 = A_11 = +|[5,6],[8,9]| = +(45-48) = -3`
Cofactor of `2 = A_12 = -|[4,6],[7,9]| = -(36-42) = 6`
Cofactor of `3 = A_13 = +|[4,5],[7,8]| = +(32-35) = -3`

Cofactor of `4 = A_21 = -|[2,3],[8,9]| = -(18-24) = 6`
Cofactor of `5 = A_22 = +|[1,3],[7,9]| = +(9-21) = -12`
Cofactor of `6 = A_23 = -|[1,2],[7,8]| = -(8-14) = 6`

Cofactor of `7 = A_31 = +|[2,3],[5,6]| = +(12-15) = -3`
Cofactor of `8 = A_32 = -|[1,3],[4,6]| = -(6-12) = 6`
Cofactor of `9 = A_33 = +|[1,2],[4,5]| = +(5-8) = -3`

The Cofactor matrix of A is `[A_(ij)]=[[A_11,A_12,A_13],[A_21,A_22,A_23],[A_31,A_32,A_33]] =[[-3,6,-3],[6,-12,6],[-3,6,-3]]`
