- In
Algebra View, enterCross(<vector>, <vector>)
where you type in the vectors you want to compute the product of in the
<vector>fields. Use parentheses for your vector coordinates. Remember that the order of the vectors matters!
Example 1
Given the vectors and , Find the vector product
You find the vector product by following the instructions above. The solution will be shown in Algebra View. The picture below shows what the solution of the vector product will look like when you follow the instructions above.
