Let for any three distinct consecutive terms $a, b, c$ of an $A.P,$ the lines $a x+b y+c=0$ be concurrent at the point $\mathrm{P}$ and $\mathrm{Q}(\alpha, \beta)$ be a point such that the system of equations $ x+y+z=6, $ $ 2 x+5 y+\alpha z=\beta$ and $x+2 y+3 z=4$, has infinitely many solutions. Then $(P Q)^2$ is equal to________.

Statement $-1 :$Determinant of a skew-symmetric matrix of order $3$ is zero

Statement $-2 :$ For any matrix $A,$ $\det \left( {{A^T}} \right) = {\rm{det}}\left( A \right)$ and $\det \left( { - A} \right) = - {\rm{det}}\left( A \right)$ Where $\det \left( A \right) = A$. Then :

For $\alpha, \beta \in \mathrm{R}$ and a natural number $\mathrm{n}$, let

$A_r=\left|\begin{array}{ccc}r & 1 & \frac{n^2}{2}+\alpha \\ 2 r & 2 & n^2-\beta \\ 3 r-2 & 3 & \frac{n(3 n-1)}{2}\end{array}\right|$. Then $2 A_{10}-A_8$

If $p + q + r = 0 = a + b + c$, then the value of the determinant $\left| {\,\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{pa}&{qb}&{rc}\\{qc}&{ra}&{pb}\\{rb}&{pc}&{qa}\end{array}\,} \right|$ is

If $'a'$ is non real complex number for which system of equations $ax -a^2y + a^3z$ = $0$ , $-a^2x + a^3y + az$ = $0$ and $a^3x + ay -a^2z$ = $0$ has non trivial solutions, then $|a|$ is
