Solution

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

2

Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

75% Answer Correctly

factoring

deconstructing

normalizing

squaring
Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.

3

If side a = 5, side b = 3, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

64% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{85} \)
\( \sqrt{34} \)
\( \sqrt{20} \)
\( \sqrt{2} \)
Solution

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

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 52 + 32
c2 = 25 + 9
c2 = 34
c = \( \sqrt{34} \)

4

A(n) __________ is to a parallelogram as a square is to a rectangle.

52% Answer Correctly

rhombus

triangle

trapezoid

quadrilateral
Solution

A rhombus is a parallelogram with four equal-length sides. A square is a rectangle with four equal-length sides.

5

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 5 and radius (r) = 2. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
36π
72π
20π
12π
Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(22 x 5)
v = 20π
