Prove that axb (Vector cross product) is perpendicular to both a and b vector if :-
a vector = i + j - 3k
b vector = -i+2j-3k
Ans:-
Here, this question says that we should prove the question through vector process and find out the a vector and b vector is perpendicular to cross product of a vector and b vector .
So in this question we should solve the problem by using the vector product rule.
If there there is perpendicular situation then the dot product of two vector is zero.
i.e (axb).a=0 -------------------------(I)
As similar to the b vector
(axb).b=0 -----------------------(ii)
So here to find answer first we must find the vector product of a and b in order to find the final result as per the question had asked.
So, axb = |a||b|sin( theta)
But here the value of a vector and b vector is given, so we can directly do the product by matrix method which is clearly given in this img solution :
Now when we came to know vector product of axb then let's dot product is with a and b respectly.
Here we have given the dot product to a only, you must do dot product with b too. But the answer will be 0 in both condition.
Hence (axb) perpendicular to a vector
And (axb) perpendicular to b vector
