MCQ
$\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}0&a&{ - b}\\{ - a}&0&c\\b&{ - c}&0\end{array}} \right| = $
  • A
    $ - 2abc$
  • B
    $abc$
  • $0$
  • D
    ${a^2} + {b^2} + {c^2}$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$0$
c
(c)$\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}0&a&{ - b}\\{ - a}&0&c\\b&{ - c}&0\end{array}\,} \right| = 0$ (Since value of determinant of skew-symmetric matrix of odd orders is $0$).
