1. <math>det(E'_{i,j\,\!}A) = -det(A) ; |E'_{i,j\,\!}|= -1. [Note: det(EA) = |E||A|]</math>

* Also, note that exchanging two rows flips the sign.

2. <math>det(E^2_{i,c\,\!}A) = det(A) ; |(E^2_{i,j,c\,\!}| = 1</math>

* These are "enough"!

3. <math>det((E_{i,j,c\,\!}A) = det(A) ; |(E^3_{i,j,c\,\!}| = 1

* Adding a multiple of one row to another does not change the determinant.

The determinant of any matrix can be calculated using the properties above.</math>
