Question
Evaluate the following determinant:
$\begin{vmatrix}\text{a}+\text{ib}&\text{c}+\text{id}\\-\text{c}+\text{id}&\text{a}-\text{ib}\end{vmatrix}$
✓

Answer

Let $\text{A}=\begin{vmatrix}\text{a}+\text{ib}&\text{c}+\text{id}\\-\text{c}+\text{id}&\text{a}-\text{ib}\end{vmatrix}$
$|\text{A}|=(\text{a}+\text{ib})(\text{a}-\text{ib})-(\text{c}+\text{id})(-\text{c}+\text{id})$ (Taking (-) sign common from -c + id)
$=(\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2)+(\text{c}+\text{id})(\text{c}-\text{id})$ (Also (a + ib)(a - ib) = a2 + b2)  
$=\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2+\text{c}^2+\text{d}^2$
Hence, $|\text{A}|=\text{a}^2+\text{b}^2+\text{c}^2+\text{d}^2$
