      7 When the right hand rule is true we have i being the index figer, j being the middle, and k being the thumb. These correspond with <1,0,0>, <0,1,0>, and <0,0,1> respectively.

      9 When the right hand rule is untrue under a transformation we know the determinant is negative as space has inverted.
