Final answer:

To find C^-1 given ACBD = In, rearrange the equation as ACB = D^-1A^-1B^-1 and conclude that C^-1 = D^-1A^-1B^-1, which is option (d) A^-1D^-1B.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find C-1 given that ACBD = In, we can rearrange the equation as ACB = D-1A-1B-1. Therefore, C-1 = D-1A-1B-1, which is option (d) A-1D-1B.
