Cross Command

Cross[ <Vector u> , <Vector v> ]

Calculates the cross product of u and v.

Example:

Cross[{1, 3, 2}, {0, 3, -2}] yields {-12, 2, 3}.

Note: In the Input Bar you can also use u ⊗ v.

Hint: If a vector in the CAS View contains undefined variables, the command yields a formula for the cross product.

Example:

Cross[{a, b, c}, {d, e, f}] yields {b f - c e, -a f + c d, a e - b d}.
