Let α,β be the roots of the equation, ax²+bx+c=0.a,b,c are real and s_n=αⁿ+βⁿ and \(\begin{vmatrix}3 &1+s_1  &1+s_2\\1+s_1&1+s_2  &1+s_3\\1+s_2&1+s_3  &1+s_4\end{vmatrix}=\frac{k(a+b+c)^2}{a^4}\) then k=

Let $ X = \left\{ \begin{bmatrix} a & b \\ c & d \end{bmatrix} \middle| a, b, c, d \in \mathbb{R} \right\} $. If $ f: X \to \mathbb{R} $ is defined by $ f(A) = \det(A) $ for all $ A \in X $, then $ f $ is
