CROSSPRODUCT (a,b)


  • and are any real numbers.

Description

  • This function shows the Cross product of two numbers.
  • Cross product is also called Vector product.
  • The cross product is defined in three dimensional space and it is denoted by axb.
  • In CROSSPRODUCT (a,b), a and b are any two positive real numbers.
  • We can calculate the Cross Product this way:

Failed to parse (syntax error): {\displaystyle a × b = \mid a \mid sin(\theta) n}

  • is the magnitude (length) of vector a
  • is the magnitude (length) of vector b
  • is the angle between a and b
  • n is the unit vector at right angles to both a and b
