(A) Given that $a, b, c, d$ are coplanar vectors. Since $a$ and $b$ are coplanar,the vector $a 	imes b$ is perpendicular to the plane containing $a$ and $b$. Similarly,since $c$ and $d$ are coplanar,the vector $c 	imes d$ is perpendicular to the plane containing $c$ and $d$. Because $a, b, c, d$ all lie in the same plane,the vectors $a 	imes b$ and $c 	imes d$ are both perpendicular to the same plane. Therefore,$a 	imes b$ and $c 	imes d$ are parallel to each other. Since the cross product of two parallel vectors is the zero vector,we have $(a 	imes b) 	imes (c 	imes d) = 0$.

$a, b, c, d$ are coplanar vectors,then $(a \times b) \times (c \times d)$ is equal to
