The cross (vector) product
Equations are omitted for technical reasons - download the original pdf
The cross product is defined to be [Equation goes here - download the original pdf to see it.] where [symbol] is a unit vector perpendicular to p and q. This can be shown to be equivalent to [Equation goes here - download the original pdf to see it.] The cross product is not commutative, so the order in which the cross product is performed is important and must be preserved.
