1. Definition :
Let us consider the equations a 1x + b1y = 0, a2x + b2y = 0

page 2 of 54
a y a2 a1 a2
 – 1 = =–  =  a1b2 – a2b1 = 0
b1 x b2 b1 b2
a1 b1
we express this eliminant as =0
a2 b2
a1 b1
The symbol is called the determinant of order two.

a2 b2
Its value is given by: D = a1 b2  a2 b1
2. E x p a ns io n of D et er m i na nt :
a1 b1 c1
The symbol a 2 b 2 c 2 is called the determinant of order three.
a3 b3 c 3
Its value can be found as:
b2 c 2 b c1 b1 c1
D = a1  a2 1 + a3 OR
b3 c3 b3 c 3 b2 c 2
b2 c 2 a2 c 2 a2 b2
D = a1  b1 + c1 ... & so on.
b3 c3 a3 c 3 a3 b3
In this manner we can expand a determinant in 6 ways using elements of ; R 1, R2, R3 or C1, C2, C3.
3. Minors:
The minor of a given element of a determinant is the determinant of the elements which remain after
deleting the row & the column in which the given element stands. For example, the minor of a 1 in
a1 b1 c1
b2 c 2 a1 c 1
a 2 b 2 c 2 is & the minor of b2 is .
b3 c 3 a3 c 3
a3 b3 c 3
Hence a determinant of order two will have “4 minors” & a determinant of order three will have “9
minors”.
4. Cofactor:
Cofactor of the element aij is Cij = (1)i+j. Mij ; Where i & j denotes the row & column in which the
particular element lies.
Note that the value of a determinant of order three in terms of ‘Minor’ & ‘Cofactor’ can be written as:
D = a11M11  a12M12 + a13M13
OR D = a11C11 + a12C12 + a13C13 & so on.
5. Transp ose of a D et erm inant :
The transpose of a determinant is a determinant obtained after interchanging the rows & columns.
a1 b1 c1 a1 a 2 a 3
D = a2 b2 c 2  DT  b1 b 2 b 3
a 3 b3 c 3 c1 c 2 c 3
6. Sy m m et ri c , S kew -S y m m e t r ic , A sy m m et ri c D et er m i na nt s:
(i) A determinant is symmetric if it is identical to its transpose. Its i th row is identical to its i th
column i.e. aij = aji for all values of ' i ' and ' j '
(ii) A determinant is skew-symmetric if it is identical to its transpose having sign of each element
inverted i.e. aij = – aji for all values of ' i ' and ' j '. A skew-symmetric determinant has all elements
zero in its principal diagonal.
(iii) A determinant is asymmetric if it is neither symmetric nor skew-symmetric.
7. Prop ert ies of D et erm ina nt s:
(i) The value of a determinant remains unaltered, if the rows & columns are inter changed,
a1 b1 c 1 a1 a 2 a 3
i.e. D = a 2 b 2 c 2  b1 b 2 b 3 = D
a3 b3 c 3 c1 c 2 c 3
(ii) If any two rows (or columns) of a determinant be interchanged, the value of determinant
is changed in sign only. e.g.
a1 b1 c1 a2 b2 c 2
Let D = a 2 b 2 c 2 & D = a1 b1 c1 Then D =  D.
a3 b3 c 3 a3 b3 c 3
NOTE : A skew-symmetric deteminant of odd order has value zero.

(iii) If a determinant has all the elements zero in any row or column then its value is zero,
0 0 0
FREE Download Study Package from website: www.TekoClasses.com & www.MathsBySuhag.com

i.e. D = a 2 b 2 c 2 = 0.
a3 b3 c 3
(iv) If a determinant has any two rows (or columns) identical, then its value is zero,
a1 b1 c1

page 3 of 54
i.e. D = a1 b1 c1 = 0.
a3 b3 c 3
(v) If all the elements of any row (or column) be multiplied by the same number, then the determinant
is multiplied by that number, i.e.
a1 b1 c1 Ka1 Kb1 Kc 1
D = a2 b2 c 2 and D = a 2 b 2 c 2

Teko Classes, Maths : Suhag R. Kariya (S. R. K. Sir), Bhopal, Phone : 0 903 903 777 9, 0 98930 58881
Then D= KD
a3 b3 c 3 a3 b3 c3
(vi) If each element of any row (or column) can be expressed as a sum of two terms then the
determinant can be expressed as the sum of two determinants, i.e.
a1x b1y c1z a1 b1 c1 x y z
a2 b2 c 2  a2 b 2 c 2  a2 b 2 c 2
a3 b3 c3 a3 b3 c 3 a3 b3 c 3
(vii) The value of a determinant is not altered by adding to the elements of any row (or column) a
constant multiple of the corresponding elements of any other row (or column),
a1 b1 c1 a1  ma 2 b1  mb 2 c 1  mc 2
i.e. D = a 2 b 2 c 2 and D = a2 b2 c2 . Then D= D.

USE OF FACTOR THEOREM TO FIND THE VALUE OF DETERMINANT
If by putting x = a the value of a determinant vanishes then (x  a) is a factor of the determinant.

Teko Classes, Maths : Suhag R. Kariya (S. R. K. Sir), Bhopal, Phone : 0 903 903 777 9, 0 98930 58881
Solution. Let a = b
a b c
2
 D= a b2 c 2 = 0 Hence (a – b) is a factor of determinant
bc ac ab
Similarly, let b = c, D = 0
c = a, D = 0
Hence, (a – b) (b – c) (c – a) is factor of determinant. But the given determinant is of fifth
order so
a b c
a 2 b 2 c 2 = (a – b) (b – c) (c – a) ( (a2 + b2 + c2) + µ (ab + bc + ca))
bc ca ab
Since this is an identity so in order to find the values of  and µ. Let
a = 0, b = 1, c = – 1
– 2 = (2) (2 – µ)
(2 – µ) = – 1. ........(i)
Let a = 1, b = 2, c = 0
1 2 0
1 4 0 = (–1) 2 (– 1) (5 + 2µ)
0 0 2
 5 + 2µ = 2 .......(ii)
from (i) and (ii)  = 0 and µ = 1
a b c
Hence a 2 b2 c2 = (a – b) (b – c) (c – a) (ab + bc + ca).

Example : Let  be a repeated root of quadratic equation f(x) = 0 and A(x), B(x) and C(x) be polynomial of
degree 3, 4 and 5 respectively, then show that
A( x ) B( x ) C( x )
A( ) B( ) C( )
divisible by f(x).
A( ) B( ) C( )
A( x ) B( x ) C( x )
Solution. Let g(x) = A( ) B( ) C( )
A( ) B( ) C( )
A( x ) B( x ) C( x )
 g(x) = A( ) B( ) C( )
A( ) B( ) C( )
Since g() = g() = 0
 g(x) = (x – )2 h(x) i.e.  is the repeated root of g(x) and h(x) is any polynomial
expression of degree 3. Also f(x) = 0 have repeated root . So g(x) is divisible by f(x).
Example : Prove that F depends only on x 1, x 2 and x 3

x12  b1x1  b 2 x 22  b1x 2  b 2 x 32  b1x 3  b 2 0 0 0
Hence F is independent of a1.

Similarly = = 0.

Hence F is independent of b1 and b2 also.
So F is dependent only on x 1, x 2, x 3
