    The result of a cross product is a vector, and a number indicating angle for dot product.

    Cross product for these two vectors, (1,0,0) (x axis) and (0,1,0) (y axis), is (0,0,1) (z axis). The result is always perpendicular to the two vectors being calculated.

    Dot product for those two vectors is a number 90, in degrees.
