Cot^2x - cot^2x cos^2x
= cot^2x - {(cot^2x)(cos^2x)}
= cot^2x { 1 - cos^2x }
= cot^2x { sin^2x }
= (cos^2x/sin^2x) { sin^2x }
= cos^2x

Given the set of vertices, determine whether parallelogram ABCD is a rhombus, rectangle or square. List all that apply. A(7,-4),

Sloan [31]

Given:

Vertices of a parallelogram ABCD are A(7,-4), B(-1,-4), C(-1,-12), D(7, -12).

To find:

Whether the parallelogram ABCD is a rhombus, rectangle or square.

Solution:

Distance formula:

$D=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Using distance formula, we get

$AB=\sqrt{(-4-(-4))^2+(-1-7)^2}$

$AB=\sqrt{(-4+4)^2+(-8)^2}$

$AB=\sqrt{0+64}$

$AB=8$

Similarly,

$BC=\sqrt{(-1-(-1))^2+(12-(-4))^2}=8$

$CD=\sqrt{(7-(-1))^2+(-12-(-12))^2}=8$

$AD=\sqrt{(7-7)^2+(-12-(-4))^2}=8$

All sides of parallelogram are equal.

$AC=\sqrt{(-1-7)^2+(-12-(-4))^2}=8\sqrt{2}$

$BD=\sqrt{(7-(-1))^2+(-12-(-4))^2}=8\sqrt{2}$

Both diagonals are equal.

Since, all sides are equal and both diagonals are equal, therefore, the parallelogram ABCD is a square.

We know that, a square is special case of rectangles and rhombus.

So, parallelogram ABCD is a rhombus, rectangle or square. Therefore, the correct option is c.

What numbers would you multiply -3/4 by to equal 1?

Sonja [21]

You would multiply by -4/3. That's cuz to get to 1, you have to cancel out the negative, with another negative. You then have to multiply by the reciprocal.

Hope this helps!

A rectangular flower bed that is 5 ft long and 4 feet wide is surrounded by a square lawn that is

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

124 ft2

Step-by-step explanation:

The yard is a 12ft square so the length and width would both be 12ft. You multiply the length and width of the yard to get the area of the yard so 12x12=144. You have the length and width of the flower bed so 5x4=20. Once you have the area of both you can subtract the area the flower bed takes up of the lawn. 144-20=124 ft2.
