In this exercise, students are asked to compute the determinants of given matrices using the method of cofactor expansion. Matrices (a) and (b) are 3x3 matrices, while matrix (c) is a 4x4 matrix. Each matrix requires using the cofactor expansion formula to find the determinant, focusing on one row or one column and calculating the minors and cofactors of each element.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F327c4acc-aab0-4600-9811-c42079067cf3%2F960f0c91-f1d8-4ec2-afcf-db02bcd5a087%2Fofkz4fm_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
