Find the equation of the line joining $\mathrm{A}(1,3)$ and $\mathrm{B}(0,0)$ using determinants and find $\mathrm{k}$ if $\mathrm{D}(\mathrm{k}, 0)$ is a point such that area of triangle $\mathrm{ABD}$ is $3 \,\mathrm{sq}$ $\mathrm{units}$.

If $\omega $ is an imaginary root of unity, then the value of $\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}a&{b{\omega ^2}}&{a\omega }\\{b\omega }&c&{b{\omega ^2}}\\{c{\omega ^2}}&{a\omega }&c\end{array}\,} \right|$ is

The least value of the product $xyz$ for which the determinant $\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  x&1&1 \\ 
  1&y&1 \\ 
  1&1&z 
\end{array}} \right|$ is non-negative, is 

Evaluate the determinants

$\left|\begin{array}{ccc}
3 & -4 & 5 \\
1 & 1 & -2 \\
2 & 3 & 1
\end{array}\right|$

If the system of equations $2x + 3y - z = 0$, $x + ky - 2z = 0$ and  $2x - y + z = 0$ has a non -trivial solution $(x, y, z)$, then $\frac{x}{y} + \frac{y}{z} + \frac{z}{x} + k$ is equal to

If $\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{x + 1}&1&1\\2&{x + 2}&2\\3&3&{x + 3}\end{array}\,} \right| = 0,$ then $x$ is
