Calculus

the functions

f(x)= ln(x) and g(x)= x^2-1

they are both 0 when x=1

apply the race track principle to explain which of the following inequalities is true for x is (greater than or equal to) 1:

f(x) < g(x)
or
g(x) < f(x)

Which statement explains how you could use coordinate geometry to prove the opposite sides of a quadrilateral are congruent? a. use the slope formula to prove the slopes of the opposite sides are the same. b. use the slope formula to prove the slopes of the opposite sides are opposite reciprocals. c. use the distance formula to prove the lengths of the opposite sides are the same. d. use the distance formula to prove the midpoints of the opposite sides are the same.
