Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The determinant:
Formula used:
If the corresponding elements of eithertwo entire rows or a columns are same then the value of determinant is 0.
Calculation:
Consider the determinant
Observe that first and third row is identical.
Recall that if the corresponding elements of either two entire rows or a columns are same then the value of determinant is 0.
Therefore,
Thus, the value of the determinant is
