Prove that `[vec(a),vec(b),vec( c) +vec(d)]=[vec(a),vec(b),vec( c)] +[vec(a),vec(b),vec(d)]`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`[vec(a),vec(b),vec( c) +vec(a)]=vec(a).{vec(b) xx(vec( c) +vec(d))}= vec(a) .{vec(b) xx vec( c) +vec(b)xxvec(a)}`.
`=vec (a) (vec(b) xxvec (c ) )+vec(a). (vec(b) xxvec(d)) = [vec(a) , vec(b) , vec (c )]+[vec(a),vec(b),vec (c )]`.
