Question

Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Let $\vec{a}$, $\vec{b}$, $\vec{c}$ be three vectors. Then the scalar $(\vec{a}\times\vec{b})·\vec{c}$ is called the scalar product of $\vec{a},\vec{b},\vec{c}$ and is denoted by $[\vec{a}\vec{b}\vec{c}]=\vec{a}·(\vec{b}\times\vec{c})$.
Statement II: $\vec{a}\times\vec{b}$ is vector which is ⊥ to $\vec{a}$ and $\vec{b}$ both.
In the light of the above Statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below :

• A. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
