Expand the determinant |A|
|A| = y1(z2 - z3) + y2(z3 - z1) + y3(z1 - z2)
|A| =(5 - 4) + 3(4 - ) + 8( - 5)
|A| =(1) + 3(4) + 8(-5)
|A| =0 + 12 + -40
|A| =-28
Expand the determinant |B|
|B| = z1(x2 - x3) + z2(x3 - x1) + z3(x1 - x2)
|B| = (1 - 9) + 5(9 - ) + 4( - 1)
|B| =(-8) + 5(9) + 4(-1)
|B| =0 + 45 + -4
|B| =41
Expand the determinant |C|
|C| = x1(y2 - y3) + x2(y3 - y1) + x3(y1 - y2)
|C| = (3 - 8) + 1(8 - ) + 9( - 3)
|C| =(-5) + 1(8) + 9(-3)
|C| =0 + 8 + -27
|C| =-19
Expand the determinant |D|
|D| = x1(y2z3 - y3z2) + x2(y3z1 - y1z3) + x3(y1z2 - y2z1)
|D| = (3(4) - (8)5) + 1(8() - ()4) + 9((5) - (3))
|D| = (12 - 40) + 1(0 - 0) + 9(0 - 0)
|D| = (-28) + 1(0) + 9(0)
|D| = 0 + 0 + 0
|D| =0
