***PREFACE***
Dear Students,
It gives me great pleasure to present to you this book on A Textbook on
“Determinant” of Basic Mathematics presented specially for you.
Many books have been written on Basic Mathematics by different authors
and teachers but majority of the students find it difficult to fully
understand the examples in these books.
Also the Teachers have faced many problems due to paucity of time and
classroom workload. Sometimes the college teacher is not able to help
their own student in solving many difficult questions in the class even
though they wish to do so.
Keeping in mind the need of the students, the author were inspired to write
a suitable text book providing solutions to various examples of
“Determinant” of Basic Mathematics.
It is hoped that this book will meet more than an adequately the needs of
the students they are meant for. I have tried our level best to make this
book error free.
Any suggestions for the improvement of the book would be most welcome
and gratefully acknowledged.
