\(π \), then, the value of If A + B + C = <span class="math-tex">\(\pi \)</span>, then, the value of <span class="math-tex">\(\left| {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}} {\sin \left( {A + B + C} \right)}&{\sin B}&{\cos C}\\ { - \sin B}&0&{\tan A}\\ {\cos \left( {A + B} \right)}&{ - \tan A}&0 \end{array}} \right|\)</span> is Since \(A + B + C = \pi\): \(\sin(A+B+C) = \sin\pi = 0\) and \(\cos(A+B) = \cos(\pi - C) = -\cos C\). The determinant becomes \(\begin{vmatrix} 0 & \sin B & \cos C \\ -\sin B & 0 & \tan A \\ -\cos C & -\tan A & 0 \end{vmatrix}\) This is a skew-symmetric matrix of odd order (3×3). The determinant of any such matrix is 0. (Direct expansion also gives \(-\sin B\tan A\cos C + \cos C\sin B\tan A = 0\).) Answer: (A) 0
