If angle a = 44° and angle b = 49° what is the length of angle d?
| 114° | |
| 136° | |
| 151° | |
| 118° |
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° - 44° - 49° = 87°
So, d° = 49° + 87° = 136°
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° - 44° = 136°
Simplify 5a x 3b.
| 15a2b2 | |
| 15\( \frac{b}{a} \) | |
| 15ab | |
| 15\( \frac{a}{b} \) |
To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.
5a x 3b = (5 x 3) (a x b) = 15ab
If the area of this square is 49, what is the length of one of the diagonals?
| 6\( \sqrt{2} \) | |
| 3\( \sqrt{2} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{2} \) | |
| 7\( \sqrt{2} \) |
To find the diagonal we need to know the length of one of the square's sides. We know the area and the area of a square is the length of one side squared:
a = s2
so the length of one side of the square is:
s = \( \sqrt{a} \) = \( \sqrt{49} \) = 7
The Pythagorean theorem defines the square of the hypotenuse (diagonal) of a triangle with a right angle as the sum of the squares of the other two sides:
c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 72 + 72
c2 = 98
c = \( \sqrt{98} \) = \( \sqrt{49 x 2} \) = \( \sqrt{49} \) \( \sqrt{2} \)
c = 7\( \sqrt{2} \)
What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 11?
| 8π | |
| 7π | |
| 22π | |
| 11π |
The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:
c = πd
c = 11π
Solve for x:
-8x - 6 > \( \frac{x}{-7} \)
| x > \(\frac{5}{9}\) | |
| x > -3 | |
| x > -3\(\frac{3}{5}\) | |
| x > -\(\frac{42}{55}\) |
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.
-8x - 6 > \( \frac{x}{-7} \)
-7 x (-8x - 6) > x
(-7 x -8x) + (-7 x -6) > x
56x + 42 > x
56x + 42 - x > 0
56x - x > -42
55x > -42
x > \( \frac{-42}{55} \)
x > -\(\frac{42}{55}\)
