Solution
\[\begin{vmatrix}a - b & b + c & a \\ b - c & c + a & b \\ c - a & a + b & c\end{vmatrix}\]
\[ = \begin{vmatrix}- b & b + c + a & a \\ - c & c + a + b & b \\ - a & a + b + c & c\end{vmatrix} \left[\text{ Applying }C_1 \to C_1 - C_3\text{ and }C_2 \to C_2 + C_3 \right]\]
\[ = \left( - 1 \right)\left( a + b + c \right)\begin{vmatrix}b & 1 & a \\ c & 1 & b \\ a & 1 & c\end{vmatrix} \left[\text{ Taking }\left( - 1 \right)\text{ common from }C_1\text{ and }\left( a + b + c \right)\text{ common from }C_2 \right]\]
\[ = \left( - 1 \right)\left( a + b + c \right)\begin{vmatrix}b & 1 & a \\ c - b & 0 & b - a \\ a - b & 0 & c - a\end{vmatrix} \left[\text{ Applying }R_2 \to R_2 - R_1\text{ and }R_3 \to R_3 - R_1 \right]\]
\[ = \left( - 1 \right)\left( a + b + c \right)\left[ - \left( c - b \right)\left( c - a \right) + \left( b - a \right)\left( a - b \right) \right]\]
\[ = \left( - 1 \right)\left( a + b + c \right)\left[ - c^2 + ac + bc - ab + ba - b^2 - a^2 + ab \right]\]
\[ = \left( - 1 \right)\left( a + b + c \right)\left( - a^2 - b^2 - c^2 + ab + bc + ac \right)\]
\[ = \left( a + b + c \right)\left( a^2 + b^2 + c^2 - ab - bc - ac \right)\]
\[ = a^3 + a b^2 + a c^2 - a^2 b - abc - a^2 c + b a^2 + b^3 + b c^2 - a b^2 - b^2 c - abc + c a^2 + c b^2 + c^3 - acb - b c^2 - a c^2 \]
\[ = a^3 + b^3 + c^3 - 3abc\]
