Answer to Problem 65E
The statement “The cross product is not defined for vectors in the plane.” is true.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The statement “The cross product is not defined for vectors in the plane.”
Consider the provided statement “The cross product is not defined for vectors in the plane.”
According to the definition of cross product if there are two three-dimensional vectors in a space given in the form of their components, say,
Therefore, the cross product is not defined for vectors in two dimensional space.
Thus, the statement “The cross product is not defined for vectors in the plane.” is true.
