Im a bit stuck on this tutorial problem on Bravais Lattices. The question initially asks to sketch the 5 2D Bravais lattices which i have done but i have no idea how to proceed with the next part, The question states
" use the definition of the Bravais lattice to show that the third real space axis is normal to the plane"
I assume somewhere i have to use the cross-product but i don't know at what point or even how in this case.
For exampe for the c-a plane of the primitive monoclinc the only info i know is that the length c does not equal that of a and that they are not normal. How do i proceed?
Thanks
