Question
If $\omega $ is a complex cube root of unity, then the determinant $\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}2&{2\omega }&{ - {\omega ^2}}\\1&1&1\\1&{ - 1}&0\end{array}\,} \right| = $
$({C_1} \to {C_1} + {C_2} - 2{C_3})$
= $\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}0&{2\omega }&{ - {\omega ^2}}\\0&1&1\\0&{ - 1}&0\end{array}\,} \right|\, = \,0$.
