(a) Show that the cross product of two vectors,A = A x i +

Chapter 11, Problem 11.26

(choose chapter or problem)

(a) Show that the cross product of two vectors,A = A x i + A y j + A z k, and B = Bx i + By\ + Bz k isA X B = (A y Bz - A z By) i + (A ZBX - A XBZ)j+ (A x By - A y Bx)k.(b) Then show that the cross product can be written where we use the rules for evaluating a determinant. (Note,however, that this is not really a determinant, but amemory aid.)
