State True or False for the statements

The determinant \left|\begin{array}{ccc} \sin A & \cos A & \sin A+\cos A \\ \sin B & \cos B & \sin B+\cos B \\ \sin C & \cos C & \sin C+\cos C \end{array}\right| is equal to zero.

\left|\begin{array}{ccc} \sin A & \cos A & \sin A+\cos A \\ \sin B & \cos B & \sin B+\cos B \\ \sin C & \cos C & \sin C+\cos C \end{array}\right|

\\=\left|\begin{array}{ccc} \sin A & \cos A & \sin A \\ \sin B & \cos B & \sin B \\ \sin C & \cos C & \sin C \end{array}\right|+\left|\begin{array}{ccc} \sin A & \cos A & \cos A \\ \sin B & \cos B & \cos B \\ \sin C & \cos C & \cos C \end{array}\right|

We can see that columns are identical in both the matrix on Right hand side

 

Thus Determinant = 0

 

Statement in question is therefore true
