:I don't know why you thought they were quaternions. They are orthonormal vectors from which the quaternions are made. You make three bivectors i, j and k from these vectors and you verify that those bivectors satisfy the algebraic identity <math>i^2 = j^2 = k^3 = ijk = -1</math>, which means they are isomorphic to the quaternion field.--[[User:Grondilu|Grondilu]] ([[User talk:Grondilu|talk]]) 22:31, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
 
::I thought they were quaternions because you are combining them using a mechanism which you specified as quaternion multiplication. --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] ([[User talk:Rdm|talk]]) 22:39, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
