As we have learned

Vector Product of Unit Vectors -

\vec{i}\times \vec{j}=\vec{k}

\vec{j}\times \vec{k}=\vec{i}

\vec{k}\times \vec{i}=\vec{j}

- wherein

\vec{i},\vec{j},\vec{k} are unit vectors

 

 \hat i \times (\hat{j}+\hat{k})+\hat{j}\times (\hat{k}+\hat{i})+\hat{k}\times (\hat{i}+\hat{j})

\hat{i}\times \hat{j}+\hat{i}\times \hat{k}+\hat{j}\times \hat{k}+\hat{j}\times \hat{ i}+\hat{k}\times \hat{i}+\hat{k}\times \hat{j}

= \hat{k}- \hat{j}+\hat{i}-\hat{k}+\hat{j}-\hat{i}= \vec{0}
