Question
Prove the following identities:
$\begin{vmatrix}\text{a}^3&2&\text{a}\\\text{b}^3&2&\text{b}\\\text{c}^3&2&\text{c}\end{vmatrix}$
$=2(\text{a}-\text{b})(\text{b}-\text{c})(\text{c}-\text{a})(\text{a}+\text{b}+\text{c})$
✓

Answer

Let $\text{L.H.S}=\begin{vmatrix}\text{a}^3&2&\text{a}\\\text{b}^3&2&\text{b}\\\text{c}^3&2&\text{c}\end{vmatrix}$
$=2\begin{vmatrix}\text{a}^3&1&\text{a}\\\text{b}^3&1&\text{b}\\\text{c}^3&1&\text{c}\end{vmatrix}$
$=2\{\text{a}^3(\text{c}-\text{d})-1(\text{b}^3\text{c}-\text{bc}^3)+\text{a}(\text{b}^3-\text{c}^3)\}$
$=2\{\text{a}^3(\text{c}-\text{b})-\text{bc}(\text{b}-\text{c})(\text{b}+\text{c})+\text{a}(\text{b}-\text{c})(\text{b}^2+\text{bc}+\text{c}^2)\}$
$=(\text{b}-\text{c})\{-\text{a}^3-\text{bc}(\text{b}+\text{c})+\text{a}(\text{b}^2+\text{bc}+\text{c}^2)\}$
$=2(\text{a}-\text{b})(\text{b}-\text{c})(\text{c}-\text{a})(\text{a}+\text{b}+\text{c})$
$=\text{R.H.S}$
