If angle a = 58° and angle b = 37° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
122°
154°
141°
157°

Solution

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° - 58° - 37° = 85°

So, d° = 37° + 85° = 122°

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° - 58° = 122°


2

A(n) __________ is to a parallelogram as a square is to a rectangle.

51% Answer Correctly

triangle

quadrilateral

trapezoid

rhombus


Solution

A rhombus is a parallelogram with four equal-length sides. A square is a rectangle with four equal-length sides.


3

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

obtuse, acute

supplementary, vertical

acute, obtuse

vertical, supplementary


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).


4

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 8, length (l) = 9, and width (w) = 1. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
80
72
120
36

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 8 x 9 x 1
v = 72


5

A(n) __________ is two expressions separated by an equal sign.

76% Answer Correctly

problem

expression

equation

formula


Solution

An equation is two expressions separated by an equal sign. The key to solving equations is to repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.
