Three non-coplanar vectors $\bar{a}, \bar{b}, \bar{c}$ are the coterminous edges of a parallelepiped. If $\bar{a}$ and $\bar{b}$ determine the base of the parallelepiped,then its height is:

  • A
    $\frac{|[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]|}{|\bar{b} \times \bar{c}|}$
  • B
    $\frac{|[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]|}{|\bar{a} \times \bar{b}|}$
  • C
    $\frac{|[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]|}{|\bar{a} \times \bar{c}|}$
  • D
    $\frac{|[\bar{a} \bar{b} \bar{c}]|}{|\bar{b}+\bar{c}|}$
