If \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}=\overrightarrow{\mathrm{c}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{d}}\) and \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{c}}=\overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}} \times \overrightarrow{\mathrm{d}} \text { and } \overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}} \neq \overrightarrow{\mathrm{d}}, \overrightarrow{\mathrm{~b}} \neq \overrightarrow{\mathrm{c}},\) Then
  1. \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}-\overrightarrow{\mathrm{d}}\) is parallel to \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}-\overrightarrow{\mathrm{c}}\).
  2. \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{a}}-\overrightarrow{\mathrm{d}}\) is perpendicular to \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{b}}-\overrightarrow{\mathrm{c}}\).
