- The adjoint matrix has several important properties:
- The adjoint of the adjoint matrix is the original matrix.
- The adjoint of the product of two matrices is equal to the product of their adjoints in reverse order.
- The adjoint of the sum or difference of two matrices is equal to the sum or difference of their adjoints.
