As we learn

Properties of Vector Product -

\vec{a}\times(\vec{b}+\vec{c})= (\vec{a}\times\vec{b}) + (\vec{a}\times\vec{c})

- wherein

Vector product is distributive

 

\vec{a}*(\vec{b}+\vec{c})+\vec{b}*(\vec{c}+\vec{a})+\vec{c}*\vec{b}=\vec{a}*\vec{b}+\vec{a}*\vec{c}+\vec{b}*\vec{c}+\vec{b}*\vec{a}+\vec{c}*\vec{b}=\vec{a}*\vec{c}

hence perpenducular on both \vec{a}\ and\ \vec{c}
