Let $A \in \mathbb{R}^{N \times N}$ be a D6160: Real square matrix such that
(i) $\lambda \in \mathbb{R}$ is a D993: Real number
(ii) \begin{equation} A = \begin{bmatrix} \lambda & 0 & \cdots & 0 \\ 0 & \lambda & \vdots & 0 \\ \vdots & \cdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ 0 & 0 & \cdots & \lambda \end{bmatrix} \end{equation}
Then \begin{equation} \text{Det} A = \lambda^N \end{equation}
