1

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of __________ sides.

70% Answer Correctly

right angle

equal angle

equal length

parallel


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


2

If side x = 11cm, side y = 8cm, and side z = 12cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
31cm
33cm
18cm
22cm

Solution

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 11cm + 8cm + 12cm = 31cm


3

What is 5a6 + 9a6?

75% Answer Correctly
a612
14a12
14a6
45a12

Solution

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

5a6 + 9a6 = 14a6


4

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

60% Answer Correctly

acute, obtuse

obtuse, acute

vertical, supplementary

supplementary, vertical


Solution

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).


5

Solve for y:
-9y - 3 < \( \frac{y}{2} \)

44% Answer Correctly
y < -\(\frac{6}{23}\)
y < -1\(\frac{4}{41}\)
y < -\(\frac{6}{19}\)
y < 1\(\frac{11}{25}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the < sign and the answer on the other.

-9y - 3 < \( \frac{y}{2} \)
2 x (-9y - 3) < y
(2 x -9y) + (2 x -3) < y
-18y - 6 < y
-18y - 6 - y < 0
-18y - y < 6
-19y < 6
y < \( \frac{6}{-19} \)
y < -\(\frac{6}{19}\)
