Taking into account that 112112101=1+2(2+1)=1+1=20,\left|\begin{array}{ccc} 1 & 1 & 2 \\ 1 & -1 & 2 \\ 1 & 0 & 1\end{array}\right |= -1+2-(-2+1)=1+1=2\ne 0, we conclude that the vectors u1=(1,1,2),u2=(1,1,2)u_1 = ( 1, 1, 2), u_2 = ( 1, -1, 2 ) and u3=(1,0,1)u_3 = ( 1, 0, 1 ) are linearly independent, and consequently span R3.\mathbb R^3.
