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.

Solve the quadratic equations
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

for quadratic equation 1

y^2-10y+21=0

Step-by-step explanation:

y^2-7y-3y+21=0

y(y-7)-3(y-7)=0

(y-7)(y-3)=0

y-7=0,y-3=0

y=7,y=3

y=(3,7)

for quadratic equation 2

16p^2-8p+1=0

16p^2-4p-4p+1=0

4p(4p-1)-1(4p-1)=0

(4p-1)twice=0

4p-1=0,4p-1=0

4p=1

p=1/4 twice

for quadratic equation 3

x^2-400=0

x^2=400

x=√400

x=20

for quadratic equation 4

-16m^2-8m-1=0

multiply the equation by -

16m^2+8m+1=0

16m^2+4m+4m+1=0

4m(4m+1)1(4m+1)=0

4m+1=0 twice

m=-1/4 twice

for quadratic equation 5

-3n^2+75=0

divide both side by -3

-3n^2/-3=-75/-3

n^2=25

n=√25

n=5
