1

For this diagram, the Pythagorean theorem states that b2 = ?

47% Answer Correctly

c2 + a2

c - a

a2 - c2

c2 - a2


Solution

The Pythagorean theorem defines the relationship between the side lengths of a right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse squared (c2) is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared (a2 + b2): c2 = a2 + b2 or, solved for c, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)


2

If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.

45% Answer Correctly

bisects

intersects

trisects

midpoints


Solution

A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.


3

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

82% Answer Correctly

polynomial

quadratic

monomial

binomial


Solution

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


4

If angle a = 54° and angle b = 61° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
78°
58°
124°
65°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 54° - 61° = 65°


5

Which types of triangles will always have at least two sides of equal length?

54% Answer Correctly

equilateral, isosceles and right

isosceles and right

equilateral and right

equilateral and isosceles


Solution

An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length. An equilateral triangle has three sides of equal length. In a right triangle, two sides meet at a right angle.
