Why you use cosine theta with cross product?

Normally you use sine theta with the cross product and cos theta with the vector product, so that the cross product of parallel vectors is zero while the dot product of vectors at right angles is zero.


Can the vector product of two vectors be negative?

no .....the scalar product of two vectors never be negative Yes it can If A is a vector, and B = -A, then A.B = -A2 which is negative. Always negative when the angle is between the vectors is obtuse.

Is sine of an angle directly proportional to an angle?

No. The sine of an angle is not directly proportional to the angle. It is a function of the angle, but it is periodic, repeating every 360 degrees of the angle.
