Cross Product Visualizer

Understand how the cross product works in 3D (shown in 2D)

Vector A
Vector B
Parallelogram
Vector A
Vector B

2D Cross Product (Z-Component)
a × b = axby - aybx
Magnitude & Angle Form
|a × b| = |a| |b| sin(θ)
ℹ️ The Result: A positive value means the cross product points out of the page (right-hand rule). Negative means into the page. The magnitude equals the area of the parallelogram formed by the two vectors.
