TripleProduct(GeoVector3, GeoVector3)

Calculates the scalar triple product of this vector with two others, that is this · (v1 × v2).

public double TripleProduct(GeoVector3 v1, GeoVector3 v2)

Parameters

v1 GeoVector3

v2 GeoVector3

Returns

double

Remarks

The result is the signed volume of the parallelepiped spanned by the three vectors, so it is zero exactly when they are coplanar. This is the test coplanarity checks are built on.
