Could someone explain how one would get from the above equation to the bottom set of solutions?

12.4: The Cross Product

In this section, we develop an operation called the cross product, which allows us to find a vector orthogonal to two given vectors. Calculating torque is an important application of cross products, …

it's about deriving the cross product

Now you basically compare the coefficients

And from that you can derive this possible solution.

Ohh, okok. I think I get it. Thanks! So because both products are equal, you make one coefficient equal to another on the other side of the equation?
