1

If a = 1, b = 6, c = 7, and d = 5, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
7
19
18
24

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 1 + 6 + 7 + 5
p = 19


2

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

24% Answer Correctly

c = π d

c = π r

c = π d2

c = 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.

This diagram represents two parallel lines with a transversal. If b° = 144, what is the value of w°?

72% Answer Correctly
30
164
36
37

Solution

For parallel lines with a transversal, the following relationships apply:

  • angles in the same position on different parallel lines equal each other (a° = w°, b° = x°, c° = z°, d° = y°)
  • alternate interior angles are equal (a° = z°, b° = y°, c° = w°, d° = x°)
  • all acute angles (a° = c° = w° = z°) and all obtuse angles (b° = d° = x° = y°) equal each other
  • same-side interior angles are supplementary and add up to 180° (e.g. a° + d° = 180°, d° + c° = 180°)

Applying these relationships starting with b° = 144, the value of w° is 36.

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

70% Answer Correctly

radius

circumference

chord

diameter


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).


5

81% Answer Correctly

binomial

quadratic

polynomial

monomial


Solution

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