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

Here \vec{a}, \vec{b}\: and\: \vec{c} are three vectors

 

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

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

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

\vec{0}+\vec{0}+\vec{0}=\vec{0}
