1

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

88% Answer Correctly

y-axis

x-axis

origin

all of these


Solution

The coordinate grid is composed of a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. The center of the grid, where the x-axis and y-axis meet, is called the origin.


2

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

supplementary, vertical

obtuse, acute

vertical, supplementary

acute, obtuse


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).


3

If a = c = 5, b = d = 9, what is the area of this rectangle?

79% Answer Correctly
27
36
45
10

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 5 x 9
a = 45


4

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 5, length (l) = 4, and width (w) = 5. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
130
82
288
286

Solution

The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):

sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 4 x 5) + (2 x 5 x 5) + (2 x 4 x 5)
sa = (40) + (50) + (40)
sa = 130


5

If the base of this triangle is 9 and the height is 2, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
9
60\(\frac{1}{2}\)
45
84

Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 9 x 2 = \( \frac{18}{2} \) = 9
