74% Answer Correctly

acute, right, obtuse

right, obtuse, acute

right, acute, obtuse

2

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

87% Answer Correctly

division

pairs

addition

exponents


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

If angle a = 59° and angle b = 34° what is the length of angle c?

70% Answer Correctly
121°
77°
91°
87°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 59° - 34° = 87°


4

Simplify (y - 1)(y + 8)

62% Answer Correctly
y2 - 9y + 8
y2 - 7y - 8
y2 + 9y + 8
y2 + 7y - 8

Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses:

(y - 1)(y + 8)
(y x y) + (y x 8) + (-1 x y) + (-1 x 8)
y2 + 8y - y - 8
y2 + 7y - 8
