DETERMINANTS
Determinants are mathematical objects (scalars) that are very useful in the analysis and solution of systems of linear equations. As shown byCramer's rule, a system of linear equations has a unique solution iff thea determinant of the system's matrix is nonzero For example, eliminating x, y, and z from the equations
gives the square coefficient matrix with a unique number which is calledthe determinant for this system of equation. Determinants are defined only for square matrices. If the determinant of a matrix is 0, the matrix is said to be singular, (has no solution)

7.7 – The Determinant of a 2X2 Matrix
The determinant of the matrix is a scalar.
is given by det A = |A| = ad – cb.

7.7 – Triangular Matrices
If you have either an upper-triangular, lower-triangular or a diagonal matrix there is a really easy way to find the determinant:
Multiply the entries on the main diagonal.
