Question
Write the value of the determinant $\begin{vmatrix}\text{a}&1&\text{b}+\text{c}\\\text{b}&1&\text{c}+\text{a}\\\text{c}&1&\text{a}+\text{b}\end{vmatrix}$
✓

Answer

Let $\triangle=\begin{vmatrix}\text{a}&1&\text{b}+\text{c}\\\text{b}&1&\text{c}+\text{a}\\\text{c}&1&\text{a}+\text{b}\end{vmatrix}$
$=\begin{vmatrix}\text{a}+\text{b}+\text{c}&1&\text{b}+\text{c}\\\text{b}+\text{c}+\text{a}&1&\text{c}+\text{a}\\\text{c}+\text{a}+\text{b}&1&\text{a}+\text{b}\end{vmatrix}$ [Applying C1 → C1 + C3]
$=\text{a}+\text{b}+\text{c}\begin{vmatrix}1&1&\text{b}+\text{c}\\1&1&\text{c}+\text{a}\\1&1&\text{a}+\text{b}\end{vmatrix}$
$=(\text{a}+\text{b}+\text{c})\times0$
$=0$
