Given determinant \dpi{100} \begin{vmatrix}2 & 7 &65 \\3 &8 &75 \\5 &9 &86 \end{vmatrix}

So, we can split it in two addition determinants:

\begin{vmatrix}2 & 7 &65 \\3 &8 &75 \\5 &9 &86 \end{vmatrix} = \begin{vmatrix} 2 &7 &63+2 \\ 3& 8 &72+3 \\ 5& 9 & 81+5 \end{vmatrix}

\begin{vmatrix} 2 &7 &63+2 \\ 3& 8 &72+3 \\ 5& 9 & 81+5 \end{vmatrix} = \begin{vmatrix} 2 & 7 &2 \\ 3& 8& 3\\ 5 & 9 & 5 \end{vmatrix} + \begin{vmatrix} 2 & 7 &63 \\ 3& 8 &72 \\ 5 & 9 & 81 \end{vmatrix}

\begin{vmatrix} 2 & 7 &2 \\ 3& 8& 3\\ 5 & 9 & 5 \end{vmatrix} = 0     [\because Here two columns are identical ]

and \begin{vmatrix} 2 & 7 &63 \\ 3& 8 &72 \\ 5 & 9 & 81 \end{vmatrix} = \begin{vmatrix} 2 & 7 &9(7) \\ 3& 8 &9(8) \\ 5 &9 & 9(9) \end{vmatrix} = 9 \begin{vmatrix} 2 & 7 &7 \\ 3& 8& 8\\ 5& 9&9 \end{vmatrix}    [\because Here two columns are identical ]

= 0                 

Therefore we have the value of determinant = 0.
