Find the eigenvalues of a matrix in a special case (using cofactors - diagonal)

$\begingroup$

I have a matrix $A_{(3x3)}$ with determinant iqual to zero, null trace and their cofactors of the diaganal such that $\Delta_{11}=-1$, $\Delta_{22}=0$, $\Delta_{33}=-1$. Some TIPS to calculate the eigenvalues of the $A$ matrix?

The characteristic equation will be $$x^3-2x=0.$$ The $-2$ is $\Delta_{11}+\Delta_{22}+\Delta_{33}$.
