सारणिकों के गुणधर्मों का प्रयोग करके सिद्ध कीजिए :

$\left|\begin{array}{ccc}0 & a & -b \\ -a & 0 & -c \\ b & c & 0\end{array}\right|=0$

Option A
Option B
Option C
Option D

Solution

We have,

$\Delta=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}0 & a & -b \\ -a & 0 & -c \\ b & c & 0\end{array}\right|$

Applying $R_{1} \rightarrow c R_{1},$ we have:

$\Delta=\frac{1}{c}\left|\begin{array}{ccc}0 & a c & -b c \\ -a & 0 & -c \\ b & c & 0\end{array}\right|$

Applying $R_{1} \rightarrow R_{1}-b R_{2},$ we have:

$\Delta=\frac{1}{c}\left|\begin{array}{ccc}a b & a c & 0 \\ -a & 0 & -c \\ b & c & 0\end{array}\right|$

$=\frac{a}{c}\left|\begin{array}{ccc}b & c & 0 \\ -a & 0 & -c \\ b & c & 0\end{array}\right|$

Here, the two rows $R_{1}$ and $R_{3}$ are identical.

$\therefore \Delta=0$
