det(\left(\begin{matrix}0&1&5\\35&0&1\\12&13&14\end{matrix}\right))
Find the determinant of the matrix using the method of diagonals.
\left(\begin{matrix}0&1&5&0&1\\35&0&1&35&0\\12&13&14&12&13\end{matrix}\right)
Extend the original matrix by repeating the first two columns as the fourth and fifth columns.
12+5\times 35\times 13=2287
Starting at the upper left entry, multiply down along the diagonals, and add the resulting products.
14\times 35=490
Starting at the lower left entry, multiply up along the diagonals, and add the resulting products.
2287-490
Subtract the sum of the upward diagonal products from the sum of the downward diagonal products.
1797
Subtract 490 from 2287.
det(\left(\begin{matrix}0&1&5\\35&0&1\\12&13&14\end{matrix}\right))
Find the determinant of the matrix using the method of expansion by minors (also known as expansion by cofactors).
-det(\left(\begin{matrix}35&1\\12&14\end{matrix}\right))+5det(\left(\begin{matrix}35&0\\12&13\end{matrix}\right))
To expand by minors, multiply each element of the first row by its minor, which is the determinant of the 2\times 2 matrix created by deleting the row and column containing that element, then multiply by the element's position sign.
-\left(35\times 14-12\right)+5\times 35\times 13
For the 2\times 2 matrix \left(\begin{matrix}a&b\\c&d\end{matrix}\right), the determinant is ad-bc.
-478+5\times 455
Simplify.
1797
Add the terms to obtain the final result.
