Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The defining property of a rhombus is that it has equal side lengths.

=============================================================

Finding all side lengths :

AB

⇒ √(-4 + 6)² + (5 - 4)²

⇒ √2² + 1²

⇒ √5 units

BC

⇒ √(-3 + 4)² + (3 - 5)²

⇒ √1² + (-2)²

⇒ √5 units

CD

⇒ √(-5 + 3)² + (1 - 3)²

⇒ √(-2)² + (-2)²

⇒ √8 units

DA

⇒ √(-6 + 5)² + (4 - 1)²

⇒ √(-1)² + 3²

⇒ √10 units

As all side lengths of the quadrilateral are not equal, ABCD is not a rhombus.

What basic trigonometric identity would you use to verify that sinx cosx tanx=1-cos^2x

andre [41]

Answer:

$sin^2x+cos^2x=1$ is used to prove the given equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given an equation:

$sinx\cdot cosx\cdot tanx=1-cos^2x$

We will consider right hand side first

tan x can be written as:

$tanx=\frac{sinx}{cosx}$

So, on substituting tan x in the left hand side of the given equation we get:

$sinx\cdot cosx\cdot \frac{sinx}{cosx}$

Cancel common term from denominator and numerator which is cosx we get

$sin^2x$

And we have an identity:

$sin^2x+cos^2x=1$

$\Rightarrow sin^2x=1-cos^2x$

Hence, right hand side is equal to $sin^2x$ .

A gift shop sells 140 wind chimes per month at $90 each. The owners estimate that for each $5 increase in price, they will sell

guapka [62]

Answer: $95

Step-by-step explanation:

Te new price will be 90 + 5x, if the price increases "x" times

The number of wind chimes sold per month will become 140 - 7x

$\begin{aligned}&\text {Revenue, } \mathrm{R}(\mathrm{x})=(90+5 \mathrm{x})(140-7 \mathrm{x}) \\&R^{\prime}(x)=5(140-7 x)-7(90+5 x) \\&R^{\prime}(x)=700-35 x-630-35 x \\&R^{\prime}(x)=70-70 x=0 \\&70 x=70 \\&x=1\end{aligned}$

Therefore, if the price becomes (90 + 5(1)) = $95 per wind chime, then the revenue will be maximum
