||Expansions||

1. |2 4| =(2*1)-(4*3)=2-12=-10
|3 1|

2. |2 1 3|
|2 4 5| = 2|4 5|-1|2 5|+3|2 4|
|1 3 2| |3 2| |1 2| |1 3|

= 2(8-15)-(4-5)+3(6-4)

= 2*-7-(-1)+3*2

= -14+1+6

= -7

\\*Sometimes in the above sum there will be 'x' in the question and the value of
the deterninant will be given and we have to finnd the value of 'x'\\

\\*Same there will be 'x^2' as well aS 'x' and the value of the determinant will be
given and we have to find the value of 'x' using quadratic equation and
factorizing. We will get 2 values of 'x'.\\

||Cramer's Rule||

1. x+y=2
y+z=2
z+x=2

-->
x+y+0z=2
0x+y+z=2
x+0y+z=2

|1 1 0|
D=|0 1 1|
|1 0 1|

=1(1-0)-1(0-1)+0(0-1)
=1-1*-1+0
=1+1
 =2

|2 1 0|
Dx=|2 1 1|
|2 0 1|

=2(1-0)-1(2-2)+0(0-2)
=2*1-1*0+0
=2

|1 1 2|
Dy=|0 2 1|
|1 2 1|

=1(2-0)-1(0-2)+2(0-1)
=1*2-1*-2+2*-1
=2+2-2
=2

x=Dx/D y=Dy/D z=Dz/D

=2/2 =2/2 =2/2
=1 =1 =1

\\*Some questions be like 2/x-1+3/y-2=5.

Such questions can be solved by taking 1/x-1 as 'a' and 1/y-2 as 'b' and
solving as above and then resubstituting again.\\

\\*Another question seem like yz+2xz+3xy=6xyz.

Here we have to solve them by dividing by xyz and the remains 1/x+2/y+3/z=6. And
then you go as the same above comment.\\

||Properties of Determinants||

1. D obtained by interchanging all rows with columns of the original D are equal.
Mean D = Dt.

2. If we interchange any 2 rows(or columns) with each other then the determinant
obtained changes the sign only. Mean D = -Dt.

3. If any 2 rows or columns are equal then the value is zero. Mean if C1 = C2 then
D = 0.

4. Eg. |1 2 3|
|5 2 9|
|4 8 12|

|1 2 3|
=4|5 2 9|
|1 2 3|

=4*0 [C1=C2]
=0
5. Eg. |2 x+1 7|
|5 y+9 1|
|7 z+7 4|

|2 x 7| |2 1 7|
=|5 y 1| + |5 9 1|
|7 z 4| |7 7 4|

Eg. |4 3 7| |4 3 7|
|8 1 3| + |1 5 6|
|3 3 8| |3 8 3|

|4 3 7|
=|9 6 9|
|3 8 3|

\\*Sums on properties will be like solve without expansion. There may be sums in
which expansion will be needed. These will be hard to identify which property to
use.\\
