Answer

\[\left\langle 3,-4,2 \right\rangle \]

Work Step by Step

\[\begin{align} & \text{Let }\mathbf{u}=\left\langle 0,1,2 \right\rangle \text{ and }\mathbf{v}=\left\langle -2,0,3 \right\rangle \\ & \text{A vector orthogonal to }\mathbf{u}\text{ and }\mathbf{v}\text{ is parallel to }\mathbf{u}\times \mathbf{v}\text{. One such } \\ & \text{orthogonal vector is} \\ & \mathbf{u}\times \mathbf{v}=\left| \begin{matrix} \mathbf{i} & \mathbf{j} & \mathbf{k} \\ 0 & 1 & 2 \\ -2 & 0 & 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right| \\ & \mathbf{u}\times \mathbf{v}=\left| \begin{matrix} 1 & 2 \\ 0 & 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right|\mathbf{i}-\left| \begin{matrix} 0 & 2 \\ -2 & 3 \\ \end{matrix} \right|\mathbf{j}+\left| \begin{matrix} 0 & 1 \\ -2 & 0 \\ \end{matrix} \right|\mathbf{k} \\ & \mathbf{u}\times \mathbf{v}=\left( 3-0 \right)\mathbf{i}-\left( 0+4 \right)\mathbf{j}+\left( 0+2 \right)\mathbf{k} \\ & \mathbf{u}\times \mathbf{v}=3\mathbf{i}-4\mathbf{j}+2\mathbf{k} \\ & \mathbf{u}\times \mathbf{v}=\left\langle 3,-4,2 \right\rangle \\ \end{align}\]
