Find the area of triangle whose vertices are straight P left right arrow left parenthesis 1 comma space 1 comma space 1 right parenthesis comma space straight Q left right arrow left parenthesis 2 comma space 2 comma space 2 right parenthesis space and space straight R left right arrow left parenthesis 2 comma space minus 1 comma space 2 right parenthesis.


As P, Q and R are the vertices of a triangle, therefore PQ with rightwards arrow on top space and space PR with rightwards arrow on top represent the sides of triangle as shown in the figure.
   
As P, Q and R are the vertices of a triangle, therefore  represent
PQ with rightwards arrow on top space equals space left parenthesis 2 minus 1 right parenthesis straight i with hat on top plus left parenthesis 2 minus 1 right parenthesis straight j with hat on top plus left parenthesis 2 minus 1 right parenthesis straight k with hat on top space equals space straight i with hat on top plus straight j with hat on top plus straight k with hat on top
PR with rightwards arrow on top space equals left parenthesis 2 minus 1 right parenthesis straight i with hat on top plus left parenthesis negative 1 minus 1 right parenthesis straight j with hat on top plus left parenthesis 2 minus 1 right parenthesis straight k with hat on top equals straight i with hat on top minus 2 straight j with hat on top plus straight k with hat on top

We know that dot product of two perpendiculars vectors is zero. Therefore to prove straight A with rightwards arrow on top cross times straight B with rightwards arrow on top to be perpendicular to space straight A with rightwards arrow on top comma we have to prove space space space space left parenthesis straight A with rightwards arrow on top cross times straight B with rightwards arrow on top right parenthesis space times space straight A with rightwards arrow on top

We know that dot product of two perpendiculars vectors is zero. There

Define cross product of two vectors. Show that cross product of two vectors anti commute.

Cross product of two vectors is a vector whose magnitude is equal to product of the magnitude of each vector and sine of angle between them and is directed along the normal to the plane containing two vectors.

What are the characteristics of cross product?

Characteristics of cross product are:

(i) Cross product of two vectors is anti commutative.

That is, 

                         

(ii) Cross product is distributive,

That is, 
 
                 

(iii)Cross product of two parallel vectors is zero.

That is, 

                          if 

(iv) Cross product of two vectors is equal to the area of parallelogram formed by two vectors.

(v) Area of triangle formed by two vectors and their resultant is equal to half the magnitude of cross product.
