Show that the volume of a triclinic unit cell of sides a, b, and c and angles α, β, and γ is V = abc(1 − cos2α − cos2β − cos2γ + 2 cos α cos β cos γ)1/2 . 

 

There is this answered question already over here, but I have a dout regarding the process it took to get to the result, specifically, once we have our 3x3 matrix, how do we determine that this matrix equals to the linear eq? this is the image :D
