Question

Evaluate the following determinant:
$\begin{vmatrix}1&3&5\\2&6&10\\31&11&38\end{vmatrix}$

✓

Answer

$\triangle=\begin{vmatrix}1&3&5\\2&6&10\\31&11&38\end{vmatrix}$
$=1\begin{vmatrix}6&10\\11&38\end{vmatrix}-3\begin{vmatrix}2&10\\31&38\end{vmatrix}+5\begin{vmatrix}2&6\\31&11\end{vmatrix}$
$=(228-110)-3(76-310)+5(22-186)$
$=1(118)-3(-234)+5(-164)$
$=118+702-820$
$=0$
