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:
