The given identities are verified by using operations of the del operator such as divergence and curl of the given vectors.
<h3>What are the divergence and curl of a vector field?</h3>
The del operator is used for finding the divergence and the curl of a vector field.
The del operator is given by

Consider a vector field 
Then the divergence of the vector F is,
div F =
= 
and the curl of the vector F is,
curl F =
= 
<h3>Calculation:</h3>
The given vector fields are:
and 
1) Verifying the identity: 
Consider L.H.S
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
Applying the dot product between these two vectors,
⇒
...(1)
Consider R.H.S
⇒ 
So,

⇒ 

⇒ 
Then,

⇒
...(2)
From (1) and (2),

2) Verifying the identity: 
Consider L.H.S
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
Applying the cross product,
...(3)
Consider R.H.S,
⇒ 
So,

⇒ 

⇒ 
Then,
=

...(4)
Thus, from (3) and (4),
