In mathematics, a vector (from the Latin word "vehere" meaning "to carry") is a geometric entity that has magnitude (or length) and direction. Vectors can be added to other vectors according to vector algebra. Vectors play an important role in physics, engineering, and mathematics.

In mathematics, a vector (from the Latin word "vehere" which means "to carry") is a geometric object that has a magnitude (or length) and direction. A vector can be thought of as an arrow in Euclidean space, drawn from the origin of the space to a point, and denoted by a letter. The magnitude of the vector is the distance from the origin to the point, and the direction is the angle between the direction of the vector and the axis, measured counterclockwise.

Welcome back to another cross product video. We're going to try to calculate the volume of a parallel pipe bed defined by these three vectors here. The textbook gives us a nice formula that we can use which says that it's the absolute value of a dotted with a vector secrecy. But instead of calculating across product and then adopt product, we can do this using a triple product where instead of using I J and K in our matrix. Let's get that out of here. Ed, we're going to directly plug in are vectors A. B and see So doing that. We get 1 I1J zero. Okay. zero I 1 J one K and one I one J one. Kay. Then we can calculate the cross products same as normal but anywhere we have an I. J and K. We'll use those values instead. When we ignore our first column, We're looking at one times 1 And it's one times 1. One minus one times not I but rather no. Yes. Now we ignore our second column And we look at zero times 1 -1 times one zero times one -1 times one. All multiplied by one us. We'll ignore a third column and then we'll look at zero times one -1 times one zero times one, one times 1, all multiplied by zero. Since we don't have any eyes jay's or k's, this is just a scalar and so we can add it all up. We have zero times one minus negative one and it's one plus negative one time zero at zero plus one plus zero, Giving us a volume of one unit cubed. Using the triple product method. Thanks for watching.
