1. Introduction to Determinants
– Definition and applications of determinants with real entries up to order three. – Properties of determinants, minors, cofactors, and applications in various fields.
2. Determinant of a Matrix of Order One
– Determinant of a 1×1 matrix is equal to the single element present in the matrix.
3. Determinant of a Matrix of Order Two
– Determinant of a 2×2 matrix is calculated as the product of the diagonal elements minus the product of the off-diagonal elements.
4. Determinant of a Matrix of Order Three
– Determinant of a 3×3 matrix is found by expanding it in terms of second-order determinants.
– The expansion along rows or columns produces the same result by following a specific calculation process.
These topics cover the basics of determinants and their calculations up to a matrix of order three, providing a foundation for further study and application in various mathematical and practical contexts.
