VECTORPRODUCT (a,b)

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:
$aXb$ = $\mid a\mid$ . $\mid b\mid$ $sin(\theta )n$
$\mid a\mid$ is the magnitude (length) of vector a
$\mid b$ is the magnitude (length) of vector b
$\theta$ is the angle between a and b
$n$ is the unit vector at right angles to both a and b.
