Find value of determinant using properties of determinants ...
`[[2,1970,1978],[5,1960,1980],[7,1950,1978]]`


Solution:
 `A=` 
 2  1970  1978 
 5  1960  1980 
 7  1950  1978 


Now, `C_3=C_3 - C_2`

 `=` 
 2  1970  8 
 5  1960  20 
 7  1950  28 


take 4 as a comman factor from `C_3`

 `=4 xx ` 
 2  1970  2 
 5  1960  5 
 7  1950  7 


Here `C_1=C_3`, So value of the determinant is 0

`=4 xx 0`

`=0`

Method-2: Determinant by expanding cofactors

`|A|` = 
 `2`  `1970`  `1978` 
 `5`  `1960`  `1980` 
 `7`  `1950`  `1978` 


 =
 `2` × 
 `1960`  `1980` 
 `1950`  `1978` 
 `-1970` × 
 `5`  `1980` 
 `7`  `1978` 
 `+1978` × 
 `5`  `1960` 
 `7`  `1950` 


`=2 xx (1960 × 1978 - 1980 × 1950) -1970 xx (5 × 1978 - 1980 × 7) +1978 xx (5 × 1950 - 1960 × 7)`

`=2 xx (3876880 -3861000) -1970 xx (9890 -13860) +1978 xx (9750 -13720)`

`=2 xx (15880) -1970 xx (-3970) +1978 xx (-3970)`

`= 31760 +7820900 -7852660`

`=0`
