Which of the following is not true about both rectangles and squares?
the lengths of all sides are equal |
|
the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all four sides |
|
all interior angles are right angles |
|
the area is length x width |
A rectangle is a parallelogram containing four right angles. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) are equal and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d) or, comonly, 2 x length x width. The area of a rectangle is length x width. A square is a rectangle with four equal length sides. The perimeter of a square is 4 x length of one side (4s) and the area is the length of one side squared (s2).
If the base of this triangle is 3 and the height is 8, what is the area?
| 12 | |
| 65 | |
| 27 | |
| 71\(\frac{1}{2}\) |
The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:
a = ½bh
a = ½ x 3 x 8 = \( \frac{24}{2} \) = 12
The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 3) and (2, -3). What is the slope of this line?
| 1\(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| -1\(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| \(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| 2 |
The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 3) and (2, -3) so the slope becomes:
m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-3.0) - (3.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-6}{4} \)Which of the following statements about math operations is incorrect?
you can multiply monomials that have different variables and different exponents |
|
you can subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent |
|
you can add monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent |
|
all of these statements are correct |
You can only add or subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent. For example, 2a + 4a = 6a and 4a2 - a2 = 3a2 but 2a + 4b and 7a - 3b cannot be combined. However, you can multiply and divide monomials with unlike terms. For example, 2a x 6b = 12ab.
On this circle, a line segment connecting point A to point D is called:
circumference |
|
chord |
|
diameter |
|
radius |
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).
