1

A right angle measures:

90% Answer Correctly

45°

180°

90°

360°
Solution

A right angle measures 90 degrees and is the intersection of two perpendicular lines. In diagrams, a right angle is indicated by a small box completing a square with the perpendicular lines.

2

This diagram represents two parallel lines with a transversal. If c° = 12, what is the value of a°?

73% Answer Correctly
22
12

Solution

For parallel lines with a transversal, the following relationships apply:

  • angles in the same position on different parallel lines equal each other (a° = w°, b° = x°, c° = z°, d° = y°)
  • alternate interior angles are equal (a° = z°, b° = y°, c° = w°, d° = x°)
  • all acute angles (a° = c° = w° = z°) and all obtuse angles (b° = d° = x° = y°) equal each other
  • same-side interior angles are supplementary and add up to 180° (e.g. a° + d° = 180°, d° + c° = 180°)

Applying these relationships starting with c° = 12, the value of a° is 12.

3

Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

74% Answer Correctly

squaring

deconstructing

factoring

normalizing
Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.

4

If AD = 15 and BD = 7, AB = ?

76% Answer Correctly
1
8
20
10
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 = 15 - 7
AB = 8

5

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

82% Answer Correctly

binomial

monomial

quadratic

polynomial
Solution

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.
