Determinant:

Let two equations $a_{1} x+b_{1}=0$ and $a_{2} x+b_{2}=0$ are satisfied by the same value of x.

$\Rightarrow x = \frac{-b{_1}}{a_{1}}= \frac{-b{_2}}{a_{2}}$

$\Rightarrow a_{1} b_{2}-a_{2} b_{1}=0$

The expression $\mathrm{a}_{1} \mathrm{~b}_{2}-\mathrm{a}_{2} \mathrm{~b}_{1}$ is called a determinant of the second-order and is denoted by :

$D = \left|\begin{array}{ll} a_{1} & b_{1} \\ a_{2} & b_{2} \end{array}\right|$

Let consider the system of equations

$a_{1} x+b_{1} y+c_{1}=0$

$a_{2} x+b_{2} y+c_{2}=0$

$a_{3} x+b_{3} y+c_{3}=0$

If these equations are satisfied by the same values of x and y, then on eliminating x and y.

$a_{1} \left(b_{2} c_{3}-b_{3} c_{2}\right)+b_{1}\left(c_{2} a_{3}-c_{3} a_{2}\right)+c_{1}\left(a_{2} b_{3}-a_{3} b_{2}\right) =0$

The expression $a_{1} \left(b_{2} c_{3}-b_{3} c_{2}\right)+b_{1}\left(c_{2} a_{3}-c_{3} a_{2}\right)+c_{1}\left(a_{2} b_{3}-a_{3} b_{2}\right)$ is called a determinant of the third-order and is denoted by :

$D = \left|\begin{array}{lll} a_{1} & b_{1} & c_{1} \\ a_{2} & b_{2} & c_{2} \\ a_{3} & b_{3} & c_{3} \end{array}\right|$

Note- Determinants consist of an equal number of rows and columns.

Value of a Determinant:

Determinant of a matrix of order two:-

$\mathrm{A}=\left[\begin{array}{ll} a_{11} & a_{12} \\ a_{21} & a_{22} \end{array}\right]$

$\text { det }(\mathrm{A})=|\mathrm{Al}=\Delta=\left|\begin{array}{ll} a_{11} & a_{12} \\ a_{21} & a_{22} \end{array}\right|$

$\text { det }(\mathrm{A})=a_{11} a_{22}-a_{21} a_{12}$

Determinant of a matrix of order three:-

$A=\left[\begin{array}{lll} a_{1} & b_{1} & c_{1} \\ a_{2} & b_{2} & c_{2} \\ a_{3} & b_{3} & c_{3} \end{array}\right]$

$det(A) = D=\left|\begin{array}{lll} a_{1} & b_{1} & c_{1} \\ a_{2} & b_{2} & c_{2} \\ a_{3} & b_{3} & c_{3} \end{array}\right|$

$D=a_{1}\left|\begin{array}{ll} b_{2} & c_{2} \\ b_{3} & c_{3} \end{array}\right|-b_{1}\left|\begin{array}{ll} a_{2} & c_{2} \\ a_{3} & c_{3} \end{array}\right|+c_{1}\left|\begin{array}{ll} a_{2} & b_{2} \\ a_{3} & b_{3} \end{array}\right|$

$D=a_{1}\left(b_{2} c_{3}-b_{3} c_{2}\right)-b_{1}\left(a_{2} c_{3}-a_{3} c_{2}\right)+c_{1}\left(a_{2} b_{3}-a_{3} b_{2}\right)$

Properties of Determinants:

The value of a determinant doesn't change, if the rows & columns are inter-changed
$D=\left|\begin{array}{lll} a_{1} & b_{1} & c_{1} \\ a_{2} & b_{2} & c_{2} \\ a_{3} & b_{3} & c_{3} \end{array}\right|=\left|\begin{array}{lll} a_{1} & a_{2} & a_{3} \\ b_{1} & b_{2} & b_{3} \\ c_{1} & c_{2} & c_{3} \end{array}\right|$
If any two rows of a determinant are interchanged, the sign of the value of the determinant is changed
Let $\mathrm{D}=\left|\begin{array}{lll} \mathrm{a}_{1} & \mathrm{~b}_{1} & \mathrm{c}_{1} \\ \mathrm{a}_{2} & \mathrm{~b}_{2} & \mathrm{c}_{2} \\ \mathrm{a}_{3} & \mathrm{~b}_{3} & \mathrm{c}_{3} \end{array}\right|$
and $\mathrm{D'}=\left|\begin{array}{lll} \mathrm{a}_{2} & \mathrm{~b}_{2} & \mathrm{c}_{2} \\ \mathrm{a}_{1} & \mathrm{~b}_{1} & \mathrm{c}_{1} \\ \mathrm{a}_{3} & \mathrm{~b}_{3} & \mathrm{c}_{3} \end{array}\right|$
then $\mathrm{D'}=-\mathrm{D}$
If any two-column of a determinant are interchanged, the sign of the value of the determinant is changed
Let $\mathrm{D}=\left|\begin{array}{lll} \mathrm{a}_{1} & \mathrm{~b}_{1} & \mathrm{c}_{1} \\ \mathrm{a}_{2} & \mathrm{~b}_{2} & \mathrm{c}_{2} \\ \mathrm{a}_{3} & \mathrm{~b}_{3} & \mathrm{c}_{3} \end{array}\right|$
and $\mathrm{D'}=\left|\begin{array}{lll} \mathrm{b}_{1} & \mathrm{~a}_{1} & \mathrm{c}_{1} \\ \mathrm{b}_{2} & \mathrm{~a}_{2} & \mathrm{c}_{2} \\ \mathrm{b}_{3} & \mathrm{~a}_{3} & \mathrm{c}_{3} \end{array}\right|$
then $\mathrm{D'}=-\mathrm{D}$
If all the elements of a row are zero, then the value of the determinant is zero.
$\mathrm{D}=\left|\begin{array}{lll} 0 &0&0 \\ \mathrm{a}_{2} & \mathrm{~b}_{2} & \mathrm{c}_{2} \\ \mathrm{a}_{3} & \mathrm{~b}_{3} & \mathrm{c}_{3} \end{array}\right|=0$
If all the elements of a column are zero, then the value of the determinant is zero.
$\mathrm{D}=\left|\begin{array}{lll}0 & \mathrm{~b}_{1} & \mathrm{c}_{1} \\ 0 & \mathrm{~b}_{2} & \mathrm{c}_{2} \\ 0 & \mathrm{~b}_{3} & \mathrm{c}_{3} \end{array}\right|=0$
If all the elements of any row are multiplied by the same number, then the determinant is multiplied by that number.
Let $\mathrm{D}=\left|\begin{array}{lll} \mathrm{a}_{1} & \mathrm{~b}_{1} & \mathrm{c}_{1} \\ \mathrm{a}_{2} & \mathrm{~b}_{2} & \mathrm{c}_{2} \\ \mathrm{a}_{3} & \mathrm{~b}_{3} & \mathrm{c}_{3} \end{array}\right|$
and $\mathrm{D'}=\left|\begin{array}{lll} k\mathrm{a}_{1} & k\mathrm{~b}_{1} & k\mathrm{c}_{1} \\ \mathrm{a}_{2} & \mathrm{~b}_{2} & \mathrm{c}_{2} \\ \mathrm{a}_{3} & \mathrm{~b}_{3} & \mathrm{c}_{3} \end{array}\right|$
then $\mathrm{D'}=k\mathrm{D}$
If all the elements of any column are multiplied by the same number, then the determinant is multiplied by that number.
Let $\mathrm{D}=\left|\begin{array}{lll} \mathrm{a}_{1} & \mathrm{~b}_{1} & \mathrm{c}_{1} \\ \mathrm{a}_{2} & \mathrm{~b}_{2} & \mathrm{c}_{2} \\ \mathrm{a}_{3} & \mathrm{~b}_{3} & \mathrm{c}_{3} \end{array}\right|$
and $\mathrm{D'}=\left|\begin{array}{lll} k\mathrm{a}_{1} & \mathrm{~b}_{1} & \mathrm{c}_{1} \\ k\mathrm{a}_{2} & \mathrm{~b}_{2} & \mathrm{c}_{2} \\ k\mathrm{a}_{3} & \mathrm{~b}_{3} & \mathrm{c}_{3} \end{array}\right|$
then $\mathrm{D'}=k\mathrm{D}$
If all the elements of a row are proportional to the element of any other row, then the determinant's value is zero.
$\mathrm{D}=\left|\begin{array}{lll} \mathrm{a}_{1} & \mathrm{~b}_{1} & \mathrm{c}_{1} \\ k\mathrm{a}_{1} & k\mathrm{~b}_{1} & k\mathrm{c}_{1} \\ \mathrm{a}_{3} & \mathrm{~b}_{3} & \mathrm{c}_{3} \end{array}\right|=0$
If all the elements of a column are proportional to the element of any other column, then the determinant's value is zero.
$\mathrm{D}=\left|\begin{array}{lll} k\mathrm{a}_{1} & \mathrm{~b}_{1} & \mathrm{c}_{1} \\ k\mathrm{a}_{2} & \mathrm{~b}_{2} & \mathrm{c}_{2} \\ k\mathrm{a}_{3} & \mathrm{~b}_{3} & \mathrm{c}_{3} \end{array}\right|$
If some or all elements of a row or column of a determinant are expressed as the sum of two (or more) terms, then the determinant can be expressed as the sum of two (or more) determinants.
$D = \left|\begin{array}{ccc} a_{1}+ p & a_{2}+q & a_{3}+r \\ b_{1} & b_{2} & b_{3} \\ c_{1} & c_{2} & c_{3} \end{array}\right|=\left|\begin{array}{lll} a_{1} & a_{2} & a_{3} \\ b_{1} & b_{2} & b_{3} \\ c_{1} & c_{2} & c_{3} \end{array}\right|+\left|\begin{array}{lll} p&q&r\\ b_{1} & b_{2} & b_{3} \\ c_{1} & c_{2} & c_{3} \end{array}\right|$
The value of the determinant remains the same if we apply the operation $R_{i }\rightarrow R_{i} + kR_{j} \ or \ C_{i} \rightarrow C_{i} + k C_{j}$

Area of a Triangle:

The area of a triangle whose vertices are $\left(x_{1}, y_{1}\right),\left(x_{2}, y_{2}\right) \text { and }\left(x_{3}, y_{3}\right)$ is given by:

$\Delta=\frac{1}{2}\left|\begin{array}{lll} x_{1} & y_{1} & 1 \\ x_{2} & y_{2} & 1 \\ x_{3} & y_{3} & 1 \end{array}\right|$

Minors of Determinants :

The minor of a given element of the determinant is the determinant obtained by deleting the row & the column in which the given element stands.

Let $D=\left|\begin{array}{lll} a_{1} & b_{1} & c_{1} \\ a_{2} & b_{2} & c_{2} \\ a_{3} & b_{3} & c_{3} \end{array}\right|$

The minor of element a₁ $M_{11}=\left|\begin{array}{ll} b_{2} & c_{2} \\ b_{3} & c_{3} \end{array}\right|$

The minor of element b₁ = $M_{12}=\left|\begin{array}{ll} a_{2} & c_{2} \\ a_{3} & c_{3} \end{array}\right|$

The minor of element c₁ = $M_{13} = \left|\begin{array}{ll} a_{2} & b_{2} \\ a_{3} & b_{3} \end{array}\right|$

Here M_ijrepresents the minor of the element belonging to ith row and jth column.

Cofactors of Determinants:

The cofactor of element ith row and jth column is given by : $C_{ij} = (-1)^{i + j}M_{ij}$ where M_ijrepresents the minor of the element belonging to ith row and jth column.

The cofactor of element a₁ $C_{11}=\left|\begin{array}{ll} b_{2} & c_{2} \\ b_{3} & c_{3} \end{array}\right|$

The cofactor of element b₁ = $C_{12}=(-1)\left|\begin{array}{ll} a_{2} & c_{2} \\ a_{3} & c_{3} \end{array}\right|$

The cofactor of element c₁ = $C_{13} = \left|\begin{array}{ll} a_{2} & b_{2} \\ a_{3} & b_{3} \end{array}\right|$

Expansion of Determinants in terms of Elements of any Row or Column:

Let $D=\left|\begin{array}{lll} a_{1} & b_{1} & c_{1} \\ a_{2} & b_{2} & c_{2} \\ a_{3} & b_{3} & c_{3} \end{array}\right|$

The sum of the product of elements of any row (column) with their corresponding cofactors is always equal to the value of the determinant.

So the determinant D can be in 6 forms

$D = a_{1} C_{11}+b_{1} C_{12}+c_{1} C_{13}$

$D = a_{2} C_{21}+b_{2} C_{22}+c_{2} C_{23}$

$D = a_{3} C_{31}+b_{3} C_{32}+c_{3} C_{33}$

$D = a_{1} C_{11}+a_{2} C_{21}+a_{3} C_{31}$

$D = b_{1} C_{12}+b_{2} C_{22}+b_{3} C_{32}$ $D = c_{1} C_{13}+c_{2} C_{23}+c_{3} C_{33}$

Adjoint of a Matrix:

Let a given matrix $A=\left[\begin{array}{lll} a_{1} & b_{1} & c_{1} \\ a_{2} & b_{2} & c_{2} \\ a_{3} & b_{3} & c_{3} \end{array}\right]$ then adjoin of matrix A is defined as

$\text { adj(A) = Transpose of }\left[\begin{array}{lll} \mathrm{C}_{11} & \mathrm{C}_{12} & \mathrm{C}_{13} \\ \mathrm{C}_{21} & \mathrm{C}_{22} & \mathrm{C}_{23} \\ \mathrm{C}_{31} & \mathrm{C}_{32} & \mathrm{C}_{33} \end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{lll} \mathrm{C}_{11} & \mathrm{C}_{21} & \mathrm{C}_{31} \\ \mathrm{C}_{12} & \mathrm{C}_{22} & \mathrm{C}_{32} \\ \mathrm{C}_{13} & \mathrm{C}_{23} & \mathrm{C}_{33} \end{array}\right]$

where - C_ij is the cofactor of the element a_ij

Note: For any given matrix of order n

$\mathrm{A}(a d j \mathrm{~A})=(a d j \mathrm{~A}) \mathrm{A}=|\mathrm{A}| \mathrm{I}$

where I - Identity matrix of order n

Singular matrix:

A square matrix A of order n is said to be singular if $|A|=0$

Non-Singular matrix:

A square matrix A of order n is said to be non-singular if $|A| \neq 0$

Inverse of a Matrix:

A square matrix A is invertible if and only if A is nonsingular matrix or in other words a square matrix A is invertible if and only if $|A| \neq 0$ .

$\mathrm{A}(a d j \mathrm{~A})=(a d j \mathrm{~A}) \mathrm{A}=|\mathrm{A}| \mathrm{I}$

$\mathrm{A}^{-1}=\frac{1}{|\mathrm{~A}|} a d j \mathrm{~A}$

Solution of a System of Linear Equations using Inverse of a Matrix:

Let we have given the system of linear equation

$\begin{aligned} &a_{1} x+b_{1} y+c_{1} z=d_{1} \\ &a_{2} x+b_{2} y+c_{2} z=d_{2} \\ &a_{3} x+b_{3} y+c_{3} z=d_{3} \end{aligned}$

Let $\mathrm{A}=\left[\begin{array}{lll} a_{1} & b_{1} & c_{1} \\ a_{2} & b_{2} & c_{2} \\ a_{3} & b_{3} & c_{3} \end{array}\right]$

$\mathrm{X}=\left[\begin{array}{l} x \\ y \\ z \end{array}\right]$

$\mathrm{B}=\left[\begin{array}{l} d_{1} \\ d_{2} \\ d_{3} \end{array}\right]$

then the system of the linear equation can be written as

AX = B

$\left[\begin{array}{lll} a_{1} & b_{1} & c_{1} \\ a_{2} & b_{2} & c_{2} \\ a_{3} & b_{3} & c_{3} \end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{l} x \\ y \\ z \end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{l} d_{1} \\ d_{2} \\ d_{3} \end{array}\right]$

- If A is a non-singular matrix

$\mathrm{X}=\mathrm{A}^{-1} \mathrm{~B}$

- If A is a singular matrix

If $adj(A).B \neq 0$ then linear equation does not have solutions and inconsistent linear equation
If $adj(A).B = 0$ then linear equations are either consistent or inconsistent and the system have either infinitely many solutions or no solution.

Note-1 If A and B are square matrices of the same order then the determinant of the product of matrices is equal to the product of their respective determinants i.e.

$|AB|=|A|.|B|$

Note-2 If A is a square matrix of order n, then

$|adj(A)| = | A|^{ n -1}$
