In a square matrix $A$ of order $3, a_{i i}'s$ are the sum of the roots of the equation $x^2 - (a + b)x + ab= 0$; $a_{i , i + 1}'s$ are the product of the roots, $a_{i , i - 1}'s$ are all unity and the rest of the elements are all zero. The value of the det. $(A)$ is equal to

  • A
    $0$
  • B
    $(a + b)^3$
  • C
    $a^3 -b^3$
  • D
    $(a^2 + b^2)(a + b)$
