Which of the following is not true about both rectangles and squares?

63% Answer Correctly

the lengths of all sides are equal

the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all four sides

the area is length x width

all interior angles are right angles


Solution

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).


2

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

75% Answer Correctly

right, obtuse, acute

acute, right, obtuse

acute, obtuse, right

right, acute, obtuse


Solution

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


3

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 5, length (l) = 1, and width (w) = 7. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
270
35
150
32

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 5 x 1 x 7
v = 35


4

Solve for y:
y - 8 = -2 - 6y

59% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{6}{7}\)
1\(\frac{2}{7}\)
-1
\(\frac{1}{5}\)

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 equal sign and the answer on the other.

y - 8 = -2 - 6y
y = -2 - 6y + 8
y + 6y = -2 + 8
7y = 6
y = \( \frac{6}{7} \)
y = \(\frac{6}{7}\)


5

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

82% Answer Correctly

binomial

monomial

polynomial

quadratic


Solution

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