Determinant as Sum of Determinants

Theorem
Let $$\begin{vmatrix} a_{11} & \cdots & a_{1s} & \cdots & a_{1n} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{r1} & \cdots & a_{rs} & \cdots & a_{rn} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{n1} & \cdots & a_{ns} & \cdots & a_{nn} \end{vmatrix}$$ be a determinant.

Then $$\begin{vmatrix} a_{11} & \cdots & a_{1s} & \cdots & a_{1n} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{r1} + a'_{r1} & \cdots & a_{rs} + a'_{rs} & \cdots & a_{rn} + a'_{rn} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{n1} & \cdots & a_{ns} & \cdots & a_{nn} \end{vmatrix} = \begin{vmatrix} a_{11} & \cdots & a_{1s} & \cdots & a_{1n} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{r1} & \cdots & a_{rs} & \cdots & a_{rn} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{n1} & \cdots & a_{ns} & \cdots & a_{nn} \end{vmatrix} + \begin{vmatrix} a_{11} & \cdots & a_{1s} & \cdots & a_{1n} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a'_{r1} & \cdots & a'_{rs} & \cdots & a'_{rn} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{n1} & \cdots & a_{ns} & \cdots & a_{nn} \end{vmatrix}$$.

Similarly:

Then $$\begin{vmatrix} a_{11} & \cdots & a_{1s} + a'_{1s} & \cdots & a_{1n} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{r1} & \cdots & a_{rs} + a'_{rs} & \cdots & a_{rn} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{n1} & \cdots & a_{ns} + a'_{ns} & \cdots & a_{nn} \end{vmatrix} = \begin{vmatrix} a_{11} & \cdots & a_{1s} & \cdots & a_{1n} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{r1} & \cdots & a_{rs} & \cdots & a_{rn} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{n1} & \cdots & a_{ns} & \cdots & a_{nn} \end{vmatrix} + \begin{vmatrix} a_{11} & \cdots & a'_{1s} & \cdots & a_{1n} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{r1} & \cdots & a'_{rs} & \cdots & a_{rn} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{n1} & \cdots & a'_{ns} & \cdots & a_{nn} \end{vmatrix}$$.

Proof
Let: a_{11} & \cdots & a_{1s} & \cdots & a_{1n} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{r1} + a'_{r1} & \cdots & a_{rs} + a'_{rs} & \cdots & a_{rn} + a'_{rn} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{n1} & \cdots & a_{ns} & \cdots & a_{nn} \end{vmatrix} = \begin{vmatrix} b_{11} & \cdots & b_{1s} & \cdots & b_{1n} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ b_{r1} & \cdots & b_{rs} & \cdots & b_{rn} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ b_{n1} & \cdots & b_{ns} & \cdots & b_{nn} \end{vmatrix}$$; a_{11} & \cdots & a_{1s} & \cdots & a_{1n} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{r1} & \cdots & a_{rs} & \cdots & a_{rn} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{n1} & \cdots & a_{ns} & \cdots & a_{nn} \end{vmatrix}$$; a_{11} & \cdots & a_{1s} & \cdots & a_{1n} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a'_{r1} & \cdots & a'_{rs} & \cdots & a'_{rn} \\ \vdots & \ddots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\ a_{n1} & \cdots & a_{ns} & \cdots & a_{nn} \end{vmatrix}$$.
 * $$B = \begin{vmatrix}
 * $$A_1 = \begin{vmatrix}
 * $$A_2 = \begin{vmatrix}

Then:

$$ $$ $$ $$

The result for columns follows directly from Determinant of Transpose.
