det(\left(\begin{matrix}-1&x&x\\x&1&x\\x&x&1\end{matrix}\right))
Find the determinant of the matrix using the method of diagonals.
\left(\begin{matrix}-1&x&x&-1&x\\x&1&x&x&1\\x&x&1&x&x\end{matrix}\right)
Extend the original matrix by repeating the first two columns as the fourth and fifth columns.
-1+xxx+xxx=2x^{3}-1
Starting at the upper left entry, multiply down along the diagonals, and add the resulting products.
xx+xx\left(-1\right)+xx=x^{2}
Starting at the lower left entry, multiply up along the diagonals, and add the resulting products.
2x^{3}-1-x^{2}
Subtract the sum of the upward diagonal products from the sum of the downward diagonal products.
\left(x-1\right)\left(2x^{2}+x+1\right)
Subtract x^{2} from -1+2x^{3}.
det(\left(\begin{matrix}-1&x&x\\x&1&x\\x&x&1\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}1&x\\x&1\end{matrix}\right))-xdet(\left(\begin{matrix}x&x\\x&1\end{matrix}\right))+xdet(\left(\begin{matrix}x&1\\x&x\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(1-xx\right)-x\left(x-xx\right)+x\left(xx-x\right)
For the 2\times 2 matrix \left(\begin{matrix}a&b\\c&d\end{matrix}\right), the determinant is ad-bc.
-\left(1-x^{2}\right)-xx\left(1-x\right)+xx\left(x-1\right)
Simplify.
\left(x-1\right)\left(2x^{2}+x+1\right)
Add the terms to obtain the final result.
