1.15. Show the following vector identities by writing each vector in terms of
Cartesian unit vectors and showing that each component of the LHS is equal
to the corresponding component of the RHS.
(a) a (b x c) = c (a x b) = b (c x a).
(b) a x (b x c) = b(a·c) - c(a b), this is called the bac cab rule.
(c) (a x b) · (c x d) = (a · c)(b · d) – (a·d)(b· c).
(d) (a x b) × (c x d) = b[a · (c x d)] – a[b (c x d)].
(e) (a x b) × (c x d) = c[a · (b x d)] – d[a (b x c)].
(f) (a x b) · (a x b) = |al2|b|? – (a - b)².
