I need to prove that a Quadrilateral with the length of the sides being a,b,c and d, with an area of S, that 4S is less than or egual to (a+b)(c+d), somehow using twice the area of a triangle is absin Theta where theta is the angle between the sides of lengths a,b and sin theta is less than or egual to 1,with equality if theta is a right angle.

The answer must have S in it! ie: S

If yo draw a diagonal you divide the quad into two triangles the area of the two triangles is 1/2 ab sin X + 1/2 cd sin Y.
If you draw the other diagonal, you will get the area of two more triangles that are 1/2 ad sin W +1/2 bcsin Z.
If you add thes together you wil have twice the area of the quadrilateral.

So, 2A = 1/2(absinX+cdsinY + adsinW + bcsinZ)
Now the greatest value the sin can have is 1 ,so
2A =< 1/2(ab + cd + ad + bc)
So 4A = 4S <= ab + cd +ad +bc)
4S <= a(b+d) + c(b+d) <= (a+b)(c+d)

Islam replace into based via a polygamous infant rapist and a psychopathic, yet charismatic, evildoer. the superb attitude to communicate like it is scientific. the place is a foreign places journalist greater possibly to be gang raped via a horde of animals unworthy to be termed adult adult males? In a Christian, atheist or Islamic u . s .? the place are women human beings greater possibly to be deprived via regulation, not allowed topersistent or bypass to college? The barbaric "ethics" of Islam are caught in the 7 th century. it's time to go on. Brainwashing won't give up the reality from rising. As a woman and a feminist i'm indignant via the burka and the surprising practices like compelled marriage. Sharia regulation violates difficulty-free rights of girls human beings, who're in many circumstances so brainwashed that they don't word it themselves. disgrace on you for attempting to justify undesirable crimes seen solely in Islamic international places alongside with be headings, hangings and stonings to call the various maximum barbaric.

Well, I've got 4ab<=ac+ad+bc+bd
Also, i have 4ab=absin(theta)+absin(90-theta)
You were saying that sin(theta)<1, where 0 Substituting:
absin(theta)+bdsin(90-theta) Because sin(theta) + sin(90-theta)=1,
1
I'm confident you can take it from there.
