Question: Show that if ( x 1 , y 1 , z 1 , t 2 ) and ( x 2 , y 2 , z

Show that if (x1, y1, z1, t2) and (x2, y2, z2, t2) are the coordinates of an event in S and the corresponding event in S2, respectively, then the expression ds,^2= dx^2+ dy^2+ dz,^2- c^2dt,^2 is variant under a Lorentz coordinate transformation (i.e. ds,2= ds,2).
