If $P, Q$ and $R$ are angles of $\Delta PQR$, then the value of $\left|\begin{array}{ccc}-1 & \cos R & \cos Q \\ \cos R & -1 & \cos P \\ \cos Q & \cos P & -1\end{array}\right|$ is equal to

The area of a triangle whose vertices are $(2, -6)$,$(5, 4)$,and $(k, 4)$ is $35$ sq. units. Then,the value of $k$ is . . . . . . .

Evaluate $\Delta = \begin{vmatrix} 1 & a & bc \\ 1 & b & ca \\ 1 & c & ab \end{vmatrix}$

Let $S$ be the set of all values of $\theta \in [-\pi, \pi]$ for which the system of linear equations
$x + y + \sqrt{3} z = 0$
$-x + (\tan \theta) y + \sqrt{7} z = 0$
$x + y + (\tan \theta) z = 0$
has a non-trivial solution. Then $\frac{120}{\pi} \sum_{\theta \in S} \theta$ is equal to

If $\left|\begin{array}{lll}a & a^3 & a^4 \\ b & b^3 & b^4 \\ c & c^3 & c^4\end{array}\right|=k(a-b)(b-c)(c-a)$ then $k=$

The roots of the equation $\left| \begin{array}{ccc} 1 & 4 & 20 \\ 1 & -2 & 5 \\ 1 & 2x & 5x^2 \end{array} \right| = 0$ are
