When two determinants are added each of the corresponding elements gets added.
Here we can split the LHS determinant as

For the determinant u perform the following transformation R1↔ R3 (i.e. interchange 1st row with 3rd row)
When two particular rows/columns of a determinant are interchanged the value becomes negative 1 times the original value.

R1↔ R2 (i.e. interchange 1st row with 2nd row)


R1 ↔ R3 (i.e. interchange 1st row with 3rd row)

R1 ↔ R2 (i.e. interchange 1st row with 2nd row)

∴ LHS = RHS
∴
