Let AA be a 3×33 \times 3 matrix such that AT[101]=[522],AT[001]=[311],A[101]=[344]andA[001]=[131]A^{T}\begin{bmatrix} 1\\ 0\\ 1\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 5\\ 2\\ 2\end{bmatrix},\quad A^{T}\begin{bmatrix} 0\\ 0\\ 1\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 3\\ 1\\ 1\end{bmatrix},\quad A\begin{bmatrix} 1\\ 0\\ 1\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 3\\ 4\\ 4\end{bmatrix}\quad\text{and}\quad A\begin{bmatrix} 0\\ 0\\ 1\end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 1\\ 3\\ 1\end{bmatrix} If det⁡(A)=1\det(A) = 1, then det⁡(adj⁡(A2+A))\det(\operatorname{adj}(A^2 + A)) is equal to:
  1. (1)16
  2. (2)25
  3. (3)49
  4. (4)64
