Assertion (A): For two non-zero vectors a and b, a · b = b · a. Reason (R): For two non-zero vectors a and b, a × b = b × a.
Assertion (A) : For two non-zero vectors $\displaystyle \overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}$ and $\displaystyle \overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}, \overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}} \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}=\overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}} \cdot \overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}$. Reason $\displaystyle (R)$ : For two non-zero vectors $\displaystyle \overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}$ and $\displaystyle \overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}, \overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}=\overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}$.
Official answer
(C)
Assertion (A) is true, but Reason (R) is false.
