\\ \vspace{\baselineskip} Given \ \therefore \vert A \vert = 12\\ \vspace{\baselineskip}
For any square matrix of order n, adj A \vert = \vert A \vert^{n-1}\\ \\


\\ \vspace{\baselineskip} For n = 3, \vert adj A \vert = \vert A \vert^{3-1}\\ \\ \vspace{\baselineskip} = \vert A \vert^{2}\\ \\ \vspace{\baselineskip} = 12^{2} = 144\\ \vspace{\baselineskip}

Thus the given statement is true.
