Let $\Delta = \begin{vmatrix} \sin \theta \cos \phi & \sin \theta \sin \phi & \cos \theta \\ \cos \theta \cos \phi & \cos \theta \sin \phi & -\sin \theta \\ -\sin \theta \sin \phi & \sin \theta \cos \phi & 0 \end{vmatrix}$. Then:

  • A
    $\Delta$ is independent of $\theta$
  • B
    $\Delta$ is independent of $\phi$
  • C
    $\Delta$ is a constant
  • D
    $\left(\frac{d \Delta}{d \theta}\right)_{\theta = \frac{\pi}{2}} = 0$
