det(\left(\begin{matrix}1&0&0\\0&5&0\\0&0&1\end{matrix}\right))
Find the determinant of the matrix using the method of diagonals.
\left(\begin{matrix}1&0&0&1&0\\0&5&0&0&5\\0&0&1&0&0\end{matrix}\right)
Extend the original matrix by repeating the first two columns as the fourth and fifth columns.
5=5
Starting at the upper left entry, multiply down along the diagonals, and add the resulting products.
\text{true}
Starting at the lower left entry, multiply up along the diagonals, and add the resulting products.
5
Subtract the sum of the upward diagonal products from the sum of the downward diagonal products.
det(\left(\begin{matrix}1&0&0\\0&5&0\\0&0&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}5&0\\0&1\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.
5
For the 2\times 2 matrix \left(\begin{matrix}a&b\\c&d\end{matrix}\right), the determinant is ad-bc.
