Hello,

I am having a problem with the Cofactor matrix:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minor_%28linear_algebra%29

My problem is that I have the cofactor matrix and I need to find the
original matrix. How can I do this?

My cofactor matrix is:

Cofactor of A = [-1 1 2; -2 1 4; 2 -1 -3]
Det(A) = |A| = 1

How can I calculate the original matrix A?

Thanks,
Miguel
