Solution

The correct option is C (a×b)×(c×d)=0
a×b is a vector perpendicular to the plane contining a and b.

Similarly, c×d is a vector perpendicular to the plane containing c and d.

Thus, the two planes will be parallel if their normals,
i.e., a×b and c×d, are parallel.

Thus,
(a×b)×(c×d)=0

Hence, option C.
