Syntax
Copy
public static Vector3d CrossProduct(
	Vector3d a,
	Vector3d b
)

Parameters

a
Type: Rhino.GeometryVector3d
First vector.
b
Type: Rhino.GeometryVector3d
Second vector.

Return Value

Type: Vector3d
A new vector that is perpendicular to both a and b,

has Length == a.Length * b.Length * sin(theta) where theta is the angle between a and b.
