Work Step by Step

Given $$ A=\begin{bmatrix} \sin t & \cos t & 1 \\ \cos t & -\sin t & 0 \\ \sin t & -\cos t & 0 \end{bmatrix}$$ So, we get $det (A)=\begin{vmatrix} \sin t & \cos t & 1 \\ \cos t & -\sin t & 0 \\ \sin t & -\cos t & 0 \end{vmatrix}\\ =\sin t(-\sin t).0+\cos t.0.\sin t+1.\cos t.(-\cos t)-\sin t(-\sin t).1-(-\cos t).0.\sin t-0.\cos t.\cos t\\ =-\cos^2 (t)+\sin^2(t)\\ =-\cos(2t)$
