Prove that
|111abca3b3c3| = (ab)(bc)(ca)(a+b+c)

Open in App
Solution

LHS:

111abca3b3c3

=1det(bcb3c3)1det(aca3c3)+1det(aba3b3)

=1(bc3cb3)1(ac3ca3)+1(ab3ba3)

=bc3b3cac3+a3c+ab3a3b

RHS:

(ab)(bc)(ca)(a+b+c)

=(abacb2+bc)(ca)(a+b+c)

=(abcabac2+a2cb2c+ab2+bc2abc)(a+b+c)

=a2b2+ab3+ab2ca3ba2b2a2bc+a3c+a2bc+a2c2a2c2abc2ac3+abc2+b2c2+bc3ab2cb3cb2c2

=bc3b3cac3+a3c+ab3a3b

LHS=RHS

Hence proved.
