Question
Prove the following identities: $\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}+\lambda&2\text{x}&2\text{x}\\2\text{x}&\text{x}+\lambda&2\text{x}\\2\text{x}&2\text{x}&\text{x}+\lambda\end{vmatrix} =(5\text{x}+\lambda)(\lambda-\text{x})^2$

Answer

$\text{L.H.S}=\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}+\lambda&2\text{x}&2\text{x}\\2\text{x}&\text{x}+\lambda&2\text{x}\\2\text{x}&2\text{x}&\text{x}+\lambda\end{vmatrix}$
$=\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}+\lambda&2\text{x}&2\text{x}\\2\text{x}-\text{x}-\lambda&\text{x}+\lambda-2\text{x}&0\\2\text{x}-\text{x}-\lambda&0&\text{x}+\lambda-2\text{x}\end{vmatrix} [$Applying $R_2 \rightarrow R_2 - R_1 $ and $R_3 \rightarrow R_3 - R_1]$
$=\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}+\lambda&2\text{x}&2\text{x}\\-(\lambda-\text{x})&\lambda-\text{x}&0\\-(\lambda-\text{x})&0&\lambda-\text{x}\end{vmatrix}$
$=(\lambda \text{x})^2\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}+\lambda&2\text{x}&2\text{x}\\-1&1&0\\-1&0&1\end{vmatrix} [$Taking $(\lambda-\text{x})$ common from $R_2$ and $(\lambda-\text{x})$ common from $R_3]$
$=(\lambda-\text{x})^2[-1(-2\text{x})+1(\text{x}+\lambda+2\text{x})] [$Expanding along last row$]$
$=(\lambda-\text{x})^2(\lambda+5\text{x})$
$=\text{R.H.S}$
$\because\begin{vmatrix}\text{x}+\lambda&2\text{x}&2\text{x}\\2\text{x}&\text{x}+\lambda&2\text{x}\\2\text{x}&2\text{x}&\text{x}+\lambda\end{vmatrix}$
$=(\lambda-\text{x})^2(\lambda+5\text{x})$
