Cross mark or X mark (✘,☒,⨂) symbol in LaTeX
In LaTeX, there is a default command $\times$
to get an X-mark or cross-mark symbol in the document. But this command works only in math mode. Generally, this command can be used for cross product.
\documentclass{article} \usepackage{amssymb} \begin{document} $$ \verb|\times| \rightarrow \times $$ $$ \vec{a} \times \vec{b} $$ $$ 2 \times 2 = 4 $$ $$ 1 + 1 = 3 \; \times $$ $$ 1 + 1 = 2 \; \checkmark $$ \end{document}
Output:
