If angle a = 62° and angle b = 62° what is the length of angle d?
| 141° | |
| 118° | |
| 115° | |
| 151° |
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° - 62° - 62° = 56°
So, d° = 62° + 56° = 118°
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° - 62° = 118°
Which of the following statements about math operations is incorrect?
you can multiply monomials that have different variables and different exponents |
|
all of these statements are correct |
|
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 |
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.
For this diagram, the Pythagorean theorem states that b2 = ?
c2 + a2 |
|
c - a |
|
a2 - c2 |
|
c2 - a2 |
The Pythagorean theorem defines the relationship between the side lengths of a right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse squared (c2) is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared (a2 + b2): c2 = a2 + b2 or, solved for c, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)
The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -6) and (2, 2). What is the slope-intercept equation for this line?
| y = 2x - 2 | |
| y = \(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 4 | |
| y = -x - 4 | |
| y = 3x + 2 |
The slope-intercept equation for a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept of the line. From the graph, you can see that the y-intercept (the y-value from the point where the line crosses the y-axis) is -2. The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -6) and (2, 2) so the slope becomes:
m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(2.0) - (-6.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{8}{4} \)Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:
y = 2x - 2
Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?
the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides |
|
the area of a parallelogram is base x height |
|
a parallelogram is a quadrilateral |
|
opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal |
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).
