Let $\alpha, \beta, \gamma$ be the real roots of the equation, $x ^{3}+ ax ^{2}+ bx + c =0,( a , b , c \in R$ and $a , b \neq 0)$ If the system of equations (in, $u,v,w$) given by $\alpha u+\beta v+\gamma w=0, \beta u+\gamma v+\alpha w=0$ $\gamma u +\alpha v +\beta w =0$ has non-trivial solution, then the value of $\frac{a^{2}}{b}$ is

The number of distinct real roots of $\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\sin x}&{\cos x}&{\cos x}\\{\cos x}&{\sin x}&{\cos x}\\{\cos x}&{\cos x}&{\sin x}\end{array}\,} \right| = 0$ in the interval $ – \frac{\pi }{4} \le x \le \frac{\pi }{4}$ is

If ${x^a}{y^b} = {e^m},{x^c}{y^d} = {e^n},{\Delta _1} = \left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}m&b\\n&d\end{array}\,} \right|\,\,{\Delta _2} = \left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}a&m\\c&n\end{array}\,} \right|$ and ${\Delta _3} = \left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\,} \right|$, then the values of $x$  and $y$  are respectively

If $a,b,c$ be positive and not all equal, then the value of the determinant $\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}a&b&c\\b&c&a\\c&a&b\end{array}\,} \right|$ is

If $\mathrm{a}_{\mathrm{r}}=\cos \frac{2 \mathrm{r} \pi}{9}+i \sin \frac{2 \mathrm{r} \pi}{9}, \mathrm{r}=1,2,3, \ldots, i=\sqrt{-1}$ then the determinant $\left|\begin{array}{lll}a_{1} & a_{2} & a_{3} \\ a_{4} & a_{5} & a_{6} \\ a_{7} & a_{8} & a_{9}\end{array}\right|$ is equal to :
