Question:medium

The cofactor of the element \( a_{21} \) in the expansion of \[ \Delta = \begin{vmatrix} 1 & 4 & 4 -3 & 5 & 9 2 & 1 & 2 \end{vmatrix} \] is

Show Hint

The cofactor of an element in a matrix is calculated by multiplying the determinant of its minor by \( (-1)^{i+j} \), where \( i \) and \( j \) are the row and column indices of the element.
