Evaluate:
$\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}+\lambda&\text{x}&\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}+\lambda&\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}&\text{x}+\lambda\end{vmatrix}$

Answer

$\triangle=\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}+\lambda&\text{x}&\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}+\lambda&\text{x}\\\text{x}&\text{x}&\text{x}+\lambda\end{vmatrix}$
$=\begin{vmatrix}\lambda&0&\text{x}\\-\lambda&\lambda&\text{x}\\0&-\lambda&\text{x}+\lambda\end{vmatrix}$ [Applying C1 → C1 - C2, C2 → C2 - C3]
$=\begin{vmatrix}\lambda&0&\text{x}\\-\lambda&0&2\text{x}+\lambda\\0&-\lambda&\text{x}+\lambda\end{vmatrix}$ [Applying R1 → R2 + R3]
$=\lambda\begin{vmatrix}0&2\text{x}+\lambda\\-\lambda&\text{x}+\lambda\end{vmatrix}+\text{x}\begin{vmatrix}-\lambda&0\\0&-\lambda\end{vmatrix}$
$=\lambda\big[\lambda(2\text{x}+\lambda)\big]+\text{x}\lambda^2$
$=\lambda^2(2\text{x}+\lambda+\lambda^2\text{x})$
$=3\lambda^2\text{x}+\lambda^3$
$=\lambda^2(3\text{x}+\lambda)$
