Determinante von $\left[\begin{array}{cc}1 & 3\\4 & 6\end{array}\right]$

Berechnen Sie $\left|\begin{array}{cc}1 & 3\\4 & 6\end{array}\right|$.

Die Determinante einer 2x2-Matrix ist $\left|\begin{array}{cc}a & b\\c & d\end{array}\right| = a d - b c$.

$\left|\begin{array}{cc}1 & 3\\4 & 6\end{array}\right| = \left(1\right)\cdot \left(6\right) - \left(3\right)\cdot \left(4\right) = -6$

$\left|\begin{array}{cc}1 & 3\\4 & 6\end{array}\right| = -6$A
