What is (A cross B)^2 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A and B are vectors, obv.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is it (AxB).(AxB) or (AxB) x (AxB) ?

OpenStudy (irishboy123):

work it out. if A x B gives C, a vector orthogonal to A & B, what is C x C and C.C?

OpenStudy (irishboy123):

i should have said, work it out **within the context**. it could just be asking you to calculate |AxB| which involves squaring the individual components of the crossed vector.
