1

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

70% Answer Correctly

equal angle

right angle

equal length

parallel


Solution

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


2

Which of the following is not a part of PEMDAS, the acronym for math order of operations?

88% Answer Correctly

division

pairs

exponents

addition


Solution

When solving an equation with two variables, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)


3

Solve -7b - 9b = 8b - 3z - 4 for b in terms of z.

34% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{2}{5}\)z + \(\frac{4}{15}\)
-1\(\frac{5}{6}\)z + \(\frac{5}{6}\)
-1\(\frac{2}{5}\)z - 1\(\frac{3}{5}\)
z - 8

Solution

To solve this equation, isolate the variable for which you are solving (b) on one side of the equation and put everything else on the other side.

-7b - 9z = 8b - 3z - 4
-7b = 8b - 3z - 4 + 9z
-7b - 8b = -3z - 4 + 9z
-15b = 6z - 4
b = \( \frac{6z - 4}{-15} \)
b = \( \frac{6z}{-15} \) + \( \frac{-4}{-15} \)
b = -\(\frac{2}{5}\)z + \(\frac{4}{15}\)


4

A right angle measures:

90% Answer Correctly

90°

180°

360°

45°


Solution

A right angle measures 90 degrees and is the intersection of two perpendicular lines. In diagrams, a right angle is indicated by a small box completing a square with the perpendicular lines.


5

Which types of triangles will always have at least two sides of equal length?

54% Answer Correctly

equilateral and right

equilateral, isosceles and right

equilateral and isosceles

isosceles and right


Solution

An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length. An equilateral triangle has three sides of equal length. In a right triangle, two sides meet at a right angle.
