How to show $x_1y_1 + x_2y_2 - (x_3y_3 + x_4y_4) > 0$
$begingroup$
I have the following information. All are labels/variables.
$x_1 < x_3 < x_4 < x_2$
$y_1 < y_3 < y_4 < y_2$
$x_1 + x_2 = x_3 + x_4$
$x_1 + a = x_3$
$x_2 - a = x_4$
- a > 0
- all x and y values are postive
Is there any possibility for me to show that
$x_1y_1 + x_2y_2 - (x_3y_3 + x_4y_4) > 0$ ?
What I've so far is
$x_1y_1 + x_2y_2 - (x_3y_3 + x_4y_4)$
$x_1y_1 + x_2y_2 - ((x_1 + a)y_3 + (x_2 - a)y_4)$
$x_2(y_2 - y_4) + a(y_4 - y_3) - x_1(y_3 - y_1)$
In the above statement, the first 2 parts are positive. But I'm stuck to show that the difference between the first 2 parts and the third part is positive

$begingroup$
The last expression can be written as
$$x_2(y_2−y_4)+a(y_4−y_3)+x_1(y_3−y_1)$$
Here all the terms are positive, hence the inequality follows.
Hope it is helpful:)
$endgroup$
$begingroup$
I think I made a mistake in the last statement. I corrected it now in the question. It should be x1(y1−y3). But since y1 -y3 < 0 we can't say the full statement is greater than 0.Sorry for the inconvenience
