Given the matrix: \small A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 &-1 &2 \\ 2 & 3 &5 \\ -2 & 0 &1 \end{bmatrix}

Then we have,

A_{11} = (-1)^{1+1}\begin{vmatrix} 3 &5 \\ 0& 1 \end{vmatrix} =(3-0)= 3

A_{12} = (-1)^{1+2}\begin{vmatrix} 2 &5 \\ -2& 1 \end{vmatrix} =-(2+10)= -12

A_{13} = (-1)^{1+3}\begin{vmatrix} 2 &3 \\ -2& 0 \end{vmatrix} =0+6= 6

A_{21} = (-1)^{2+1}\begin{vmatrix} -1 &2 \\ 0& 1 \end{vmatrix} =-(-1-0)= 1

A_{22} = (-1)^{2+2}\begin{vmatrix} 1 &2 \\ -2& 1 \end{vmatrix} =(1+4)= 5

A_{23} = (-1)^{2+3}\begin{vmatrix} 1 &-1 \\-2& 0 \end{vmatrix} =-(0-2)= 2

A_{31} = (-1)^{3+1}\begin{vmatrix} -1 &2 \\ 3& 5 \end{vmatrix} =(-5-6)= -11

A_{32} = (-1)^{3+2}\begin{vmatrix} 1 &2 \\2& 5\end{vmatrix} =-(5-4)= -1

A_{33} = (-1)^{3+3}\begin{vmatrix} 1 &-1 \\ 2& 3 \end{vmatrix} =(3+2)= 5

Hence we get:

adjA = \begin{bmatrix} A_{11} &A_{21} &A_{31} \\ A_{12}&A_{22} &A_{32} \\ A_{13}&A_{23} &A_{33} \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 3 &1 &-11 \\ -12&5 &-1 \\ 6&2 &5 \end{bmatrix}
