1

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

88% Answer Correctly

y-axis

all of these

origin

x-axis


Solution

The coordinate grid is composed of a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. The center of the grid, where the x-axis and y-axis meet, is called the origin.

If angle a = 70° and angle b = 57° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
110°
132°
136°
146°

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° - 70° - 57° = 53°

So, d° = 57° + 53° = 110°

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° - 70° = 110°


3

What is the circumference of a circle with a radius of 19?

70% Answer Correctly
9π
1π
12π
38π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π. Circle diameter is 2 x radius:

c = πd
c = π(2 * r)
c = π(2 * 19)
c = 38π


4

What is 2a9 + 8a9?

74% Answer Correctly
-6a18
10a18
-6
10a9

Solution

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

2a9 + 8a9 = 10a9


5

For this diagram, the Pythagorean theorem states that b2 = ?

47% Answer Correctly

c2 - a2

c2 + a2

c - a

a2 - c2


Solution

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, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)
