1

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

60% Answer Correctly

obtuse, acute

supplementary, vertical

acute, obtuse

vertical, supplementary


Solution

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).


2

The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

77% Answer Correctly

a = π r

a = π d

a = π d2

a = π r2


Solution

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.


3

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 3) and (2, -5). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
-2
-\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
2

Solution

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, -5) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-5.0) - (3.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-8}{4} \)
m = -2


4

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

81% Answer Correctly

monomial

quadratic

polynomial

binomial


Solution

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.


5

What is 3a5 + 3a5?

74% Answer Correctly
6a5
6
6a10
9a10

Solution

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

3a5 + 3a5 = 6a5
