If $\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}
  {\cos 2x}&{{{\sin }^2}x}&{\cos 4x} \\ 
  {{{\sin }^2}x}&{\cos 2x}&{{{\cos }^2}x} \\ 
  {\cos 4x}&{{{\cos }^2}x}&{\cos 2x} 
\end{array}} \right| = {a_0} + {a_1}\sin x + {a_2}{\sin ^2}x + .....$ then $a_0$ is equal to

A

$1$

B

$0$

C

$-1$

D

$2$

Solution

we have to find constant term,

$\therefore $ put $\mathrm{x}=0$ in determinant.

$\left|\begin{array}{lll}{1} & {0} & {1} \\ {0} & {1} & {1} \\ {1} & {1} & {1}\end{array}\right|=-1$
