Calculus III: The Cross Product (Level 5 of 9)

The video tutorial covers various algebraic properties of the cross product, including anticommutative, distributive, scalar multiplication, and zero vector properties. It also discusses the scalar and vector triple products. Each property is proved using vector components and determinants. The tutorial concludes with examples demonstrating these properties in practice.
