  18. Volume of Parallelepiped

  19. Volume of Parallelepiped

  20. Volume of Parallelepiped Triple Scalar Product

  21. Example

  22. Example

  23. Are two vectors coplanar? • Any two non-zero vectors define a plane. • Are three vectors coplanar? • The vectors are coplanar iff the parallelepiped formed by the three vectors has Volume=0

  24. Example

  25. Are three points coplanar? • Any three points define a plane. • Are four points coplanar? • From the four points, three vectors can be formed with a common tail. If the vectors are coplanar, then the points are coplanar.

  26. Assignment • 11.4, 41-47 odd
