To prove that \([ \vec{a}, \vec{b}, \vec{c} + \vec{d}] = [ \vec{a}, \vec{b}, \vec{c}] + [ \vec{a}, \vec{b}, \vec{d}]\), we will use the properties of the scalar triple product. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Scalar Triple Product**: The scalar triple product \([ \vec{u}, \vec{v}, \vec{w}]\) is defined as \(\vec{u} \cdot (\vec{v} \times \vec{w})\). This means it gives a scalar value which represents the volume of the parallelepiped formed by the three vectors. 2. **Applying the Definition**: ...
