1

Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.

74% Answer Correctly

acute, obtuse, right

right, obtuse, acute

right, acute, obtuse

acute, right, obtuse


Solution

An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.


2

What is 6a6 - 7a6?

73% Answer Correctly
13a12
-1a6
-a12
13

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.

6a6 - 7a6 = -1a6


3

If side a = 8, side b = 1, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

63% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{65} \)
\( \sqrt{80} \)
\( \sqrt{68} \)
\( \sqrt{34} \)

Solution

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 82 + 12
c2 = 64 + 1
c2 = 65
c = \( \sqrt{65} \)


4

Solve for x:
-9x + 8 > -5 - 7x

54% Answer Correctly
x > 6\(\frac{1}{2}\)
x > \(\frac{1}{3}\)
x > 1
x > \(\frac{3}{5}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the > sign and the answer on the other.

-9x + 8 > -5 - 7x
-9x > -5 - 7x - 8
-9x + 7x > -5 - 8
-2x > -13
x > \( \frac{-13}{-2} \)
x > 6\(\frac{1}{2}\)


5

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

46% Answer Correctly

radius

diameter

chord

circumference


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).
