The determinant $$\left| {\matrix{ {1 + b} & b & 1 \cr b & {1 + b} & 1 \cr 1 & {2b} & 1 \cr } } \right|$$ equals to

If $$A$$ is square symmetric real valued matrix of dimension $$2n$$, then the eigen values of $$A$$ are

The eigen values of the matrix $$M$$ given are $$15, 3, $$ and $$0.$$
$$M = \left[ {\matrix{ 8 & { - 6} & 2 \cr { - 6} & 7 & { - 4} \cr 2 & { - 4} & 3 \cr } } \right],$$ the value of the determinant of a matrix is

If for a matrix, rank equals both the number of rows and number of columns, then the matrix is called
