Answer:

A. True.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming that it's

sec^2 x - 1 = tan^2 x

Now sec^2 x - 1 = 1 / cos^2 x - 1

= (1 - cos^2 x) / cos^2 x

But 1 - cos^2 x = sin^2 x

so sec^2 x - 1 = sin^2 x / cos ^2 x

= tan^2 x.

How do you use the distance formula and slope formula to find the lengths of a quadrilateral?

Natasha_Volkova [10]

The distance formula to find the length of the sides... opposite sides equal it could be a rectangle or parallelogram all sides equal, square or rhombus adjacent equal, kite and then the slope is used to check angles if the product of the 2 lines in -1 the lines are perpendicular (right angle) the slopes of 2 lines are the same the sides are parallel.
