Determinant Formulas and Cofactors -- Lecture 19. Learn some determinant formulas and how to compute determinants of matrices. Also, learn how to use cofactors to compute determinants.
  • What is the formula for a determinant?
  • What is a cofactor?
  • What is det A?
  • What are tridiagonal matrices?
  • How do you use cofactors to find a determinant?
This video is a complete lecture on finding determinants and formulas for determinants using cofactors. Some of the formulas get very complex and messy. A must-watch for determinants computation.
