    This document contains a math worksheet involving vector triple products. Students are given three vectors, P1, P2, and P3, and asked to define three new vectors, L, M, and N, as the cross products of these original vectors. They are then asked to calculate the cross products of L, M, and N, observe properties of cross products, and evaluate four scalar triple products and one vector triple product involving L, M, and N.
