How to Calculate Cross Product

Calculate the cross product of two 3D vectors.

The Formula

A×B = (a₂b₃-a₃b₂, ...)

The cross product formula uses the mathematical relationship: A×B = (a₂b₃-a₃b₂, ...). Each variable in the formula represents a measurable quantity that affects the final result.

Step-by-Step Method

  1. 1Identify all input values needed for the cross product calculation.
  2. 2Substitute your known values into the formula: A×B = (a₂b₃-a₃b₂, ...).
  3. 3Perform the arithmetic operations in the correct order (PEMDAS/BODMAS).
  4. 4Check that your result has the correct units and is within a reasonable range.
  5. 5Verify using the interactive Cross Product Calculator to confirm your answer.
