1

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

51% Answer Correctly

quadrilateral

triangle

trapezoid

rhombus


Solution

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


2

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

88% Answer Correctly

origin

x-axis

y-axis

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.


3

74% Answer Correctly

normalizing

deconstructing

factoring

squaring


Solution

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


4

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

82% Answer Correctly

binomial

polynomial

quadratic

monomial


Solution

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


5

If angle a = 60° and angle b = 35° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
121°
150°
120°
118°

Solution

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite:

d° = b° + c°

To find angle c, remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:

180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 60° - 35° = 85°

So, d° = 35° + 85° = 120°

A shortcut to get this answer is to remember that angles around a line add up to 180°:

a° + d° = 180°
d° = 180° - a°
d° = 180° - 60° = 120°
