Answer:

It is proved that 2PQ + 2SR + 2QR + 2 PS = 4(2(OP)+2(OQ))

Step-by-step explanation:

In a rhombus, all sides are equal.

Thus, in this question;

PQ = SR = QR = PS

By inspection, QS is the same dimension as the four sides. So, QS = PQ

Thus, OQ = PQ/2

For OP, we can find it using Pythagoreas theorem since the angle that divides the diagonals is 90°

Thus;

|OP|² + |OQ|² = |PQ|²

Earlier, we saw that;OQ = PQ/2

Thus;

|OP|² + |PQ/2|² = |PQ|²

|OP|² = |PQ|² - |PQ/2|²

|OP|² = |PQ/2|²

Taking square root of both sides, we have;

OP = PQ/2

So,going back to the question, on the right hand side, we have;

4(2(OP) + 2(OQ))

Let's put,

PQ/2 for OQ and OP as gotten earlier

So,

4(2(PQ/2) + 2(PQ/2)) = 4(PQ + PQ)

Since PQ = SR = QR = PS, we can rewrite as;

4PQ + 4PQ = (PQ + SR + QR + PS) + (PQ + SR + QR + PS) = 2PQ + 2SR + 2QR + 2 PS

This is equal to the left hand side, so the equation is proved correct.

For my brother 2x-3+6x=21<br> X= what
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

mhm for your brother

anyways...

2x-3+6x = 21

Adding like terms

8x -3 = 21

Adding 3 on both sides

8x = 24

Dividing both sides by 8

x = 3

Luiza delivers newspapers in her neighborhood. If you plot the points (−1, 1), (4, 1), (4, −2) and (−1, −2), you will create a r
wel
The first thing to do in this case is to draw the ordered pairs in the Cartesian plane and join the points.
 We have then that the resulting figure is a rectangle.
 We must find the perimeter of the rectangle that is given by:
 P = 2L + 2W
 Where,
 L: long
 W: width
 Restoring the values:
 P = 2 * (5) + 2 * (3)
 P = 16
 Answer:
 her route cover 16 miles.

Nia solved the equation -1.98 = 5.2v + 13.1. Her answer was v = -2.9. She is fairly confident about her answer, but wants to do
d1i1m1o1n [39]
To solve this, just round each number. -1.98≈-2, 5.2≈5, -2.9≈-3, 13.1≈13. The only answer choice which correctly rounds these is A, -2=5(-3)+13
