The area of a parallelogram whose two adjacent sides are represented by the vector

3 \mathbf{i}-\mathbf{k}

and

\mathbf{i}+2 \mathbf{j}

View answer and explanation

Correct option: C

\sqrt{41}

Option C (

\sqrt{41}

) is correct because the area of the parallelogram is found by taking the magnitude of the cross product of the two adjacent side vectors.
