The following theorems are true for square matrices of any size. 1. If every element in a row (or column) of matrix $A$ is $0,$ then $|A|=0$ 2. If the rows of matrix $A$ are the corresponding columns of matrix $B$, then $|B|=|A|$ 3. If any two rows (or columns) of matrix $A$ are interchanged to form matrix $B$, then $|B|=-|A|$ 4. Suppose matrix $B$ is formed by multiplying every element of a row (or column) of matrix $A$ by the real number $k$. Then $|B|=k \cdot|A|$ 5. If two rows (or columns) of a matrix $A$ are identical, then $|A|=0$. 6. Changing a row (or column) of a matrix by adding to it a constant times another row (or column) does not change the determinant of the matrix. Use the determinant theorems to find the value of each determinant. $$\left|\begin{array}{lll} 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 1 & 0 & 1 \\ 3 & 0 & 0 \end{array}\right|$$

Key Concepts

Determinant

The determinant is a scalar value derived from a square matrix that encapsulates many of the matrix's properties, such as invertibility and volume scaling in linear transformations. It is computed through specific algebraic formulas or recursive expansion methods, and it plays a crucial role in solving systems of linear equations.

Zero Row or Column

If any row or column of a matrix consists entirely of zeros, the determinant of the matrix is zero. This property reflects the fact that such a matrix represents a degenerate linear transformation that collapses the space, indicating a lack of full rank.

Transpose of a Matrix

The determinant of a matrix remains unchanged if the matrix is transposed. This means that interchanging the roles of rows and columns does not affect the value of the determinant, highlighting the inherent symmetry in its computation.

Row Interchange

Swapping any two rows (or columns) of a matrix results in the determinant changing sign. This property is used not only to compute determinants effectively but also illustrates the sensitivity of the determinant to the ordering of the basis vectors.

Scalar Multiplication of a Row

Multiplying every element of a row (or column) by a scalar factor k scales the determinant by the same factor k. This linearity property is an essential part of understanding how determinants behave under row operations.

Identical Rows or Columns

If a matrix has two identical rows or columns, its determinant is zero. This is a consequence of the linear dependence between the rows or columns, which implies that the matrix does not have full rank and therefore cannot define a unique linear transformation.

Row Addition Operation

Adding a multiple of one row (or column) to another row (or column) does not change the value of the determinant. This property underpins many methods of simplifying determinant calculation, such as using elementary row operations to create zeros in the matrix for easier computation.
