Q38. Minor of an element a ij of a determinant is the determinant obtained by deleting its ith row and jth
column in which a ij lies. Minor of a ij is denoted by M ij .
Cofactor of an element a ij , denoted by Aij , is defined by, Aij  ( 1)i  j M ij , where M ij is minor
of a ij . Sometimes Cij is used in place of Aij to denote the cofactor of element a ij .
