thank you. Found 3 solutions by jim_thompson5910, stanbon, solver91311:Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! For any upper triangular matrix, the determinant is just the product of the diagonal entries. So the determinant is d = 1*1*8 = 8. So you are correct.
