Theorem: This evaluation can be done in two different ways either by taking out the common things and then calculating the determinants or simply take determinant.
I will prefer first method because with that chances of silly mistakes reduces.
Take out x+1 from second row.
(x+1) ×
⇒(x+1) × (x2-x+1-(x-1))
⇒ (x+1) × (x2-2x+2)
⇒ x3-2x2+2x+x2-2x+2
⇒ x3-x2+2 .
Evaluate
This we can very simply go through directly.
((a+ib)(a-ib))-((-c+id)(c+id)).
⇒ (a2+b2)-(-c2 -d2).
⇒ a2+b2 + c2+d2
∵ i × i=-1
If write the value of x.
Here the determinant is compared so we need to take determinant both sides then find x.
12x+14=32-42
⇒ 12x=-10-14
⇒ 12x=-24
⇒ x=-2
If write the value of x.
this question is having the same logic as above.
2x2-40=18+14
⇒ 2x2=72
⇒ x2=36
⇒ x=.
If write the value of x.
Simply by equating both sides we can get the value of x.
2x2+2x-2(x2+4x+3)=-12
⇒ -6x-6=-12
