MCQ
The parameter on which the value of the determinant $\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}1&a&{{a^2}}\\{\cos (p - d)x}&{\cos px}&{\cos (p + d)x}\\{\sin (p - d)x}&{\sin px}&{\sin (p + d)x}\end{array}\,} \right|$ does not depend upon
  • A
    $a$
  • $p$
  • C
    $d$
  • D
    $x$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$p$
b
(b) ${C_1} \to {C_1} + {C_3} - 2{C_2}$ $\cos dx$ gives
$\Delta = \left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{1 + {a^2} - 2a\cos dx}&a&{{a^2}}\\0&{\cos px}&{\cos (p + d)x}\\0&{\sin px}&{\sin (p + d)x}\end{array}\,} \right|$
=$(1 + {a^2} - 2a\cos dx)\sin dx$, (which is independent of $p$).
