6. Determinants
Exercise 6.1
1 A. Question
Write the minors and cofactors of each element of the first column of the following matrices and hence
evaluate the determinant in each case:
Answer
Let M
ij
 and C
ij
 represents the minor and co–factor of an element, where i and j represent the row and
column.
The minor of the matrix can be obtained for a particular element by removing the row and column where the
element is present. Then finding the absolute value of the matrix newly formed.
