On this circle, line segment CD is the:
radius |
|
diameter |
|
circumference |
|
chord |
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).
Which of the following statements about math operations is incorrect?
you can subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent |
|
you can add monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent |
|
all of these statements are correct |
|
you can multiply monomials that have different variables and different exponents |
You can only add or subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent. For example, 2a + 4a = 6a and 4a2 - a2 = 3a2 but 2a + 4b and 7a - 3b cannot be combined. However, you can multiply and divide monomials with unlike terms. For example, 2a x 6b = 12ab.
Solve for a:
a2 + 8a + 7 = 0
| 4 or -5 | |
| 8 or 8 | |
| 3 or -8 | |
| -1 or -7 |
The first step to solve a quadratic equation that's set to zero is to factor the quadratic equation:
a2 + 8a + 7 = 0
(a + 1)(a + 7) = 0
For this expression to be true, the left side of the expression must equal zero. Therefore, either (a + 1) or (a + 7) must equal zero:
If (a + 1) = 0, a must equal -1
If (a + 7) = 0, a must equal -7
So the solution is that a = -1 or -7
If angle a = 34° and angle b = 32° what is the length of angle c?
| 114° | |
| 122° | |
| 93° | |
| 50° |
The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 34° - 32° = 114°
Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?
