$\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{a + b}&{a + 2b}&{a + 3b}\\{a + 2b}&{a + 3b}&{a + 4b}\\{a + 4b}&{a + 5b}&{a + 6b}\end{array}\,} \right| = $

Which of the following values of $\alpha$ satisfy the equation

$\left|\begin{array}{lll}(1+\alpha)^2 & (1+2 \alpha)^2 & (1+3 \alpha)^2 \\ (2+\alpha)^2 & (2+2 \alpha)^2 & (2+3 \alpha)^2 \\ (3+\alpha)^2 & (3+2 \alpha)^2 & (3+3 \alpha)^2\end{array}\right|=-648 \alpha$ ?

$(A)$ $-4$ $(B)$ $9$ $(C)$ $-9$ $(D)$ $4$

If ${D_r} = \left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{{2^{r - 1}}}&{{{2.3}^{r - 1}}}&{{{4.5}^{r - 1}}}\\x&y&z\\{{2^n} - 1}&{{3^n} - 1}&{{5^n} - 1}\end{array}} \right|$, then the value of $\sum\limits_{r = 1}^n {{D_r} = } $

By using properties of determinants, show that:

$\left|\begin{array}{lll}1 & a & a^{2} \\ 1 & b & b^{2} \\ 1 & c & c^{2}\end{array}\right|=(a+b)(b-c)(c-a)$

Prove that $\left|\begin{array}{ccc}a & a+b & a+b+c \\ 2 a & 3 a+2 b & 4 a+3 b+2 c \\ 3 a & 6 a+3 b & 10 a+6 b+3 c\end{array}\right|=a^{3}$

$\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{{b^2} - ab}&{b - c}&{bc - ac}\\{ab - {a^2}}&{a - b}&{{b^2} - ab}\\{bc - ac}&{c - a}&{ab - {a^2}}\end{array}\,} \right| = $
