The determinant xyx+yyx+yxx+yxy is divisible by
x-y
x2-y2+xy
x2+xy+y2
x2-xy+y2
Explanation for the correct answer:
Let ∆=xyx+yyx+yxx+yxy
Replace R1 by R1+R2+R3 we have,
∆=x+y+x+yy+x+y+xx+y+x+yyx+yxx+yxy
=2x+2y2x+2y2x+2yyx+yxx+yxy
Taking common factor 2x+y from R1, we have
∆=2x+y111yx+yxx+yxy
Noe replace C2by C2-C1and C3 by C3-C1 we have,
∆=2x+y100yxx-yx+y-y-x
=2x+y1-x2--yx-y+0+0
=2x+y-x2+xy-y2
=-2x+yx2-xy+y2
Hence ∆ is divisible by x2-xy+y2
Therefore, Option D is the correct option.
