The 31 pages that link to Cross product, each with the reason it gives.

• TorqueRelated: The cross product of position and force encodes torque’s magnitude and axis direction.

• Homogeneous coordinatesRelated: In projective-plane calculations, it finds the line through two points or the intersection of two lines.

• Coriolis forceRelated: The force direction is encoded by a cross product of rotation and velocity.

• Orbital angular momentumRelated: It determines orbital angular momentum's direction and classical magnitude.

• Axis of rotationRelated: It expresses the perpendicular direction used to represent angular velocity and torque.

• Biot–Savart lawRelated: It makes each field contribution perpendicular to both the current element and the displacement to the observation point.

• Triangle areaRelated: Half the cross-product magnitude gives the area of a triangle formed by two vectors.
