*In CROSSPRODUCT (a,b), a and b are any two positive real numbers.
*In CROSSPRODUCT (a,b), a and b are any two positive real numbers.
*We can calculate the Cross Product this way:
*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>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 a\mid</math> is the magnitude (length) of vector a
*<math>\mid b</math> is the magnitude (length) of vector b
*<math>\mid b</math> is the magnitude (length) of vector b
*<math>\theta</math> is the angle between a and b
*<math>\theta</math> is the angle between a and b
*n is the unit vector at right angles to both a and b
*n is the unit vector at right angles to both a and b
