Properties of Determinants
1. The value of a determinant remains unchanged, if its
rows and columns are interchanged.

2. If any two rows (or columns) of a determinant are interchanged,
then the value of the determinant is changed by minus sign.

3. If all the elements of a row (or column) is multiplied by a
non-zero number k, then the value of the new determinant
is k times the value of the original determinant.

Row(Column) Operations
Following are the notations to evaluate a determinant:
Similar notations can be used to denote column
operations by replacing R with C.
(i) Ri to denote ith row
(ii) Ri Rj to denote the interchange of ith and jth
rows.
(iii) Ri Ri + lRj to denote the addition of l times the
elements of jth row to the corresponding elements
of ith row.
(iv) lRi to denote the multiplication of all elements of
ith row by l.
