1

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

61% Answer Correctly

acute, obtuse

supplementary, vertical

obtuse, acute

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).


2

Simplify (3a)(9ab) + (9a2)(8b).

65% Answer Correctly
45ab2
99a2b
204ab2
99ab2

Solution

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.

(3a)(9ab) + (9a2)(8b)
(3 x 9)(a x a x b) + (9 x 8)(a2 x b)
(27)(a1+1 x b) + (72)(a2b)
27a2b + 72a2b
99a2b


3

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 1 and radius (r) = 1. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
98π
567π
243π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(12 x 1)
v = 1π


4

Factor y2 - 3y - 4

54% Answer Correctly
(y - 4)(y - 1)
(y + 4)(y - 1)
(y - 4)(y + 1)
(y + 4)(y + 1)

Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL method (First, Outside, Inside, Last) in reverse. First, find the two Last terms that will multiply to produce -4 as well and sum (Inside, Outside) to equal -3. For this problem, those two numbers are -4 and 1. Then, plug these into a set of binomials using the square root of the First variable (y2):

y2 - 3y - 4
y2 + (-4 + 1)y + (-4 x 1)
(y - 4)(y + 1)


5

If AD = 16 and BD = 9, AB = ?

76% Answer Correctly
20
7
9
1

Solution

The entire length of this line is represented by AD which is AB + BD:

AD = AB + BD

Solving for AB:

AB = AD - BD
AB = 16 - 9
AB = 7
