I need to prove that for a square matrix (nXn) A: if rkA= n-1 then rk adjA= 1.
Thanks for any help...

The adjoint of a matrix, A, can be defined as the matrix such that.
If A has rank n- 1, then it had "nullity" n- (n-1)= 1. That is, the set of all vectors u, such that Au= 0, is a one dimensional subspace. In particular, for any such u,.
