Question 1 Explanation: 
Long Method:
\begin{aligned} A &=\left[\begin{array}{cc} 1 & \tan x \\ -\tan x & 1 \end{array}\right] \\ A^{T} &=\left[\begin{array}{cc} 1 & -\tan x \\ \tan x & 1 \end{array}\right] \\ \operatorname{ad} A &=\left[\begin{array}{cc} 1 & \tan x \\ -\tan x & 1 \end{array}\right] \\ A^{-1} &=\frac{1}{|A|}[a d j(A)]^{T} \\ &=\frac{1}{1+\tan ^{2} x}\left[\begin{array}{cc} 1 & -\tan x \\ \tan x & 1 \end{array}\right] \\ &=\frac{1}{\sec ^{2} x}\left[\begin{array}{cc} 1 & -\tan x \\ \tan x & 1 \end{array}\right] \end{aligned}
Here,
\begin{aligned} A^{\top} A^{-1} &=\left[\begin{array}{cc} 1 & -\tan x \\ \tan x & 1 \end{array}\right] \frac{1}{\sec ^{2} x}\left[\begin{array}{cc} 1 & -\tan x \\ \tan x & 1 \end{array}\right] \\ &=\frac{1}{\sec ^{2} x}\left[\begin{array}{cc} 1-\tan ^{2} x & -2 \tan x \\ 2 \tan x & 1-\tan ^{2} x \end{array}\right] \\ A^{\top} A^{-1} &=\left[\begin{array}{cc} \frac{1-\tan ^{2} x}{\sec ^{2} x} & \frac{-2 \tan x}{\sec ^{2} x} \\ \frac{2 \tan x}{\sec ^{2} x} & \frac{1-\tan ^{2} x}{\sec ^{2} x} \end{array}\right] \\ \left|A^{T} A^{-1}\right| &=\left(\frac{1-\tan ^{2} x}{\sec ^{2} x}\right)^{2}+\left(\frac{2 \tan x}{\sec ^{2} x}\right)^{2} \\ &=\frac{1+\tan ^{4} x-2 \tan ^{2} x+4 \tan ^{2} x}{\sec ^{4} x}\\ &=1 \end{aligned}
Or
Short Method:
\begin{aligned} \text{since, }|A B|&=|A||B| \\ \left|A^{T} A^{-1}\right| &=\left|A^{T}\right|\left|A^{-1}\right| \\ &=|A| \times \frac{1}{|A|}=1 \\ &\left(\text { Note }:\left|A^{T}\right|=|A| \text { and }\left|A^{-1}\right|=\frac{1}{|A|} \right) \end{aligned}

Question 2 Explanation: 
Partial derivative w.r.t.
\frac{\partial}{\partial y}\left(x^{2}+y^{2}\right)=2 y
Partial derivative w.r.t. x
\frac{\partial}{\partial x}(6 y+4 x)=4
From given condition
\begin{aligned} 2 y&=4 \\ \Rightarrow y\quad &=2 \end{aligned}
