If we need to find the volume of a parallelepiped and we’re given three vectors, all we have to do is find the scalar triple product of the three vectors |a•(b x c)|, where the given vectors are (a1,a2,a3), (b1,b2,b3), and (c1,c2,c3). b x c is the cross product of b and c, and we’ll find it using the 3 x 3 matrix.
