उत्तर
\[LHS: \]
\[\begin{vmatrix}y + z & z & y \\ z & z + x & x \\ y & x & x + y\end{vmatrix}\]
\[ = \begin{vmatrix}y + z - z - y & z - z - x - x & y - x - x - y \\ z & z + x & x \\ y & x & x + y\end{vmatrix} \left[\text{ Applying }R_1 \text{ to }R_1 - R_2 - R_3 \right]\]
\[ = \begin{vmatrix}0 & - 2x & - 2x \\ z & z + x & x \\ y & x & x + y\end{vmatrix}\]
\[ = - 2x\begin{vmatrix}0 & 1 & 1 \\ z & z + x & x \\ y & x & x + y\end{vmatrix} \left[\text{ Taking }- 2x\text{ common from }R_1 \right]\]
\[ = - 2x\begin{vmatrix}0 & 0 & 1 \\ z & z & x \\ y & - y & x + y\end{vmatrix} \left[\text{ Applying }C_2 \text{ to }C_2 - C_3 \right]\]
\[ = - 2x\left( - zy - zy \right) \left[\text{ Expanding along first row }\right]\]
\[ = 4xyz\]
\[ = RHS\]
\[ \therefore \begin{vmatrix}y + z & z & y \\ z & z + x & x \\ y & x & x + y\end{vmatrix} = 4xyz\]
