Taking ‘a’, ‘b’ and ‘c’ outside the determinant from 1st,2nd and 3rd column respectively
Taking ‘a’, ‘b’ and ‘c’ outside the determinant from 1st,2nd and 3rd row respectively
.
R1 → R1 + R2 (i.e. Replacing 1st row by addition of 1st and 2nd row)
panding the determinant along 1st row
∴ LHS = a2 b2 c2 × 2(1 - (-1)) = 4a2b2c2 = RHS
∴
