Corollary: Two Vectors are Parallel If and Only If Their Cross Product is Zero

In this video, I go over a corollary to the previous video in which I determined the cross product length as equaling |a| |b| sin θ. The corollary or theorem that follows from the cross product length is that if the vectors a and b are parallel, then the angle between them are either 0 or 180 degrees or π radians. Thus, the sine term vanishes and becomes 0; and so does the cross product! This means that we can determine if any 2 vectors are parallel if and only if their cross product is equal to 0.
