Simplify (y + 5)(y + 2)
| y2 - 7y + 10 | |
| y2 + 3y - 10 | |
| y2 + 7y + 10 | |
| y2 - 3y - 10 |
To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses:
(y + 5)(y + 2)
(y x y) + (y x 2) + (5 x y) + (5 x 2)
y2 + 2y + 5y + 10
y2 + 7y + 10
If angle a = 59° and angle b = 47° what is the length of angle d?
| 121° | |
| 151° | |
| 127° | |
| 112° |
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° - 59° - 47° = 74°
So, d° = 47° + 74° = 121°
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° - 59° = 121°
On this circle, line segment AB is the:
chord |
|
radius |
|
circumference |
|
diameter |
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).
If the base of this triangle is 9 and the height is 8, what is the area?
| 37\(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| 42 | |
| 49\(\frac{1}{2}\) | |
| 36 |
The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:
a = ½bh
a = ½ x 9 x 8 = \( \frac{72}{2} \) = 36
If side a = 6, side b = 6, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?
| \( \sqrt{72} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{2} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{65} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{10} \) |
According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:
c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 62 + 62
c2 = 36 + 36
c2 = 72
c = \( \sqrt{72} \)
