Area of parellelogram formed by vectors A and B as adjacent sides =


|A x B| (cross product)

It is during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light.

AREA OF PARALLELOGRAM = | A x B |


substitute the values in place of A and B

substituting the above formula we get
| i j k |
| 1 -2 0 |
| 3 -2 0| = 4 k and magnitude is 4 sq units`

Thats right


Area of parallelogram is = I A X BI


Here A=i-2j and B=3i-2j


                         i      j      k


Thus area =  1   -2      0


                        3    -2    0


 


 


The Scientist does not study nature because it is useful; he studies it because he delights in it, & he delights in it because it is beautiful. If nature were not beautiful, it would not be worth knowing, life would not be worth living. Ofcourse I do not here speak of that beauty that strikes the senses, the beauty of qualities & appearances; not that I undervalue such beauty, far from it, but it has nothing to do with science; I mean that profounder beauty which comes from the harmoniuos order of the parts, & which a pure intelligence can grasp.
