Question

Evaluate the determinant $\left|\begin{array}{rr}a+i b & c+i d \\ -c+i d & a-i b\end{array}\right|$

✓

Answer

Let $A =\left|\begin{array}{cc}a+i b & c+i d \\ -c+i d & a-i b\end{array}\right|$
$\Rightarrow|A|=(a+i b)(a-i b)-(c+i d)(-c+i d)$
$=(a+i b)(a-i b)+(c+i d)(c-i d)$
$=a^2-i^2 b^2+c^2-i^2 d^2$
$=a^2-(-1) b^2+c^2-(-1) d^2$
$=a^2+b^2+c^2+d^2$
$\text { Thus, }|A|=a^2+b^2+c^2+d^2$
