1

On this circle, a line segment connecting point A to point D is called:

46% Answer Correctly

circumference

chord

diameter

radius


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).


2

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. Which of the following is not a part of the FOIL method?

83% Answer Correctly

Inside

Odd

First

Last


Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses.


3

A(n) __________ is to a parallelogram as a square is to a rectangle.

51% Answer Correctly

quadrilateral

rhombus

triangle

trapezoid


Solution

A rhombus is a parallelogram with four equal-length sides. A square is a rectangle with four equal-length sides.


4

If the area of this square is 81, what is the length of one of the diagonals?

68% Answer Correctly
9\( \sqrt{2} \)
7\( \sqrt{2} \)
\( \sqrt{2} \)
6\( \sqrt{2} \)

Solution

To find the diagonal we need to know the length of one of the square's sides. We know the area and the area of a square is the length of one side squared:

a = s2

so the length of one side of the square is:

s = \( \sqrt{a} \) = \( \sqrt{81} \) = 9

The Pythagorean theorem defines the square of the hypotenuse (diagonal) of a triangle with a right angle as the sum of the squares of the other two sides:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 92 + 92
c2 = 162
c = \( \sqrt{162} \) = \( \sqrt{81 x 2} \) = \( \sqrt{81} \) \( \sqrt{2} \)
c = 9\( \sqrt{2} \)


5

If a = c = 1, b = d = 7, and the blue angle = 75°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

65% Answer Correctly
24
4
14
7

Solution

The area of a parallelogram is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 1 x 7
a = 7
