    If\[f(\theta )=\left| \begin{matrix} {{\cos }^{2}}\theta  & \cos \theta \sin \theta  & -\sin \theta   \\ \cos \theta  & {{\sin }^{2}}\theta  & \cos \theta   \\ \sin \theta  & -\cos \theta  & 0  \\ \end{matrix} \right|\]Then, for all\[\theta \]

    A)  \[f(\theta )=0\]     

    B)  \[f(\theta )=1\]

    C)  \[f(\theta )=-1\]   

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Given, \[f(\theta )=\left| \begin{matrix}    {{\cos }^{2}}\theta  & \cos \theta \sin \theta  & -\sin \theta   \\    \cos \theta \sin \theta  & {{\sin }^{2}}\theta  & \cos \theta   \\    \sin \theta  & -\cos \theta  & 0  \\ \end{matrix} \right|\] \[={{\cos }^{2}}\theta (0+{{\cos }^{2}}\theta )-\cos \theta \]       \[.\sin \theta (0-\sin \theta .\cos \theta )\] \[-\sin \theta (-{{\cos }^{2}}\theta .\sin \theta -{{\sin }^{3}}\theta )\] \[={{\cos }^{4}}\theta +2{{\sin }^{2}}\theta .{{\cos }^{2}}\theta +{{\sin }^{4}}\theta \] \[={{({{\cos }^{2}}\theta +{{\sin }^{2}}\theta )}^{2}}\] \[=1\] \[\therefore \]For all\[\theta ,f(\theta )=1\]
