$\begin{vmatrix}\text{b}+\text{c}&\text{a}-\text{b}&\text{a}\\\text{c}+\text{a}&\text{b}-\text{c}&\text{b}\\\text{a}+\text{b}&\text{c}-\text{a}&\text{c}\end{vmatrix}=3\text{abc}-\text{a}^3-\text{b}^3-\text{c}^3$

Answer

$\begin{vmatrix}\text{b}+\text{c}&\text{a}-\text{b}&\text{a}\\\text{c}+\text{a}&\text{b}-\text{c}&\text{b}\\\text{a}+\text{b}&\text{c}-\text{a}&\text{c}\end{vmatrix}=3\text{abc}-\text{a}^3-\text{b}^3-\text{c}^3$
$\text{L.H.S}=\begin{vmatrix}\text{b}+\text{c}&\text{a}-\text{b}&\text{a}\\\text{c}+\text{a}&\text{b}-\text{c}&\text{b}\\\text{a}+\text{b}&\text{c}-\text{a}&\text{c}\end{vmatrix}$
$=\begin{vmatrix}\text{b}+\text{c}+\text{a}&-\text{b}&\text{a}\\\text{c}+\text{a}+\text{b}&-\text{c}&\text{b}\\\text{a}+\text{b}+\text{c}&-\text{a}&\text{c}\end{vmatrix}$
$=-(\text{b}+\text{c}+\text{a})\begin{vmatrix}1&\text{b}&\text{a}\\1&\text{c}&\text{b}\\1&\text{a}&\text{c}\end{vmatrix}$
$=-(\text{b}+\text{c}+\text{a})\begin{vmatrix}1&\text{b}&\text{a}\\0&\text{c}-\text{b}&\text{b}-\text{a}\\0&\text{a}-\text{b}&\text{c}-\text{a}\end{vmatrix}$
$=-(\text{b}+\text{c}+\text{a})[(\text{c}-\text{b})(\text{c}-\text{a})-(\text{b}-\text{a})(\text{a}-\text{b})]$
$=3\text{abc}-\text{a}^3-\text{b}^3-\text{c}^3$
$=\text{R.H.S}$
