  • Property 3 - If any two rows ( or columns) of a  determinant are identical then the value of the determinant is zero.
  • Property  4  -  If each element of a row (or column)  of a determinant is multiplied by a  constant k then the value of the new determinant is k times the value of the original determinant.
  • Property  5  -  If each element of a row (or column) is expressed as the sum of two numbers then the determinant can be expressed as the sum of two determinants
  • Property  6  -  If a constant multiple of all elements of any row  (or column)  is added to the corresponding elements of any other row  (or column  )  then the value of the new determinant so obtained is the same as that of the original determinant.
