The two vectors A→ = (5.9) i^+(1.8)j^+(2.6)k^ and B→ = (2.1)i^+(5.4)j^+(2.2)k^ define a plane containing a triangle. One vertex of this triangle contains both tails of the two vectors while the other two vertices contain each of the heads of the vectors, respectively. What is the magnitude of a vector perpendicular to this plane?
