| − | VECTORPRODUCT | + | <div style="font-size:30px">'''VECTORPRODUCT (a,b)'''</div><br/> |
| | + | *<math>a</math> and <math>b</math> are any real numbers. |
| | + | |
| | + | ==Description== |
| | + | *This function shows the Cross product of two numbers. |
| | + | *Vector product is also called Cross product. |
| | + | *The Vector product is defined in three dimensional space and it is denoted by axb. |
| | + | *In VECTORPRODUCT (a,b), a and b are any two positive real numbers. |
| | + | *We can calculate the Cross Product this way: |
| | + | *<math>a X b</math> = <math>\mid a\mid</math>.<math> \mid b\mid</math><math> sin(\theta) n</math> |
| | + | *<math>\mid a\mid</math> is the magnitude (length) of vector a |
| | + | *<math>\mid b</math> is the magnitude (length) of vector b |
| | + | *<math>\theta</math> is the angle between a and b |
| | + | *<math>n</math> is the unit vector at right angles to both a and b. |
| | + | |
| | + | ==Examples== |
| | + | #VECTORPRODUCT([2,3,5],[8,6,4]) = -18 32 -12 |
| | + | #VECTORPRODUCT([4,10,3.2],[9,5.3,4]) = 23.04 12.8 -68.8 |
| | + | #VECTORPRODUCT([5.3,7.2,8],[-6,-4,7]) = 82.4 -85.1 22.000000000000004 |
