On this circle, line segment CD is the:

46% Answer Correctly

diameter

radius

circumference

chord


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).


2

If a = c = 9, b = d = 10, what is the area of this rectangle?

80% Answer Correctly
14
90
24
1

Solution

The area of a rectangle is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 9 x 10
a = 90


3

If BD = 22 and AD = 30, AB = ?

76% Answer Correctly
8
9
18
6

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 = 30 - 22
AB = 8


4

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

supplementary, vertical

vertical, supplementary

acute, obtuse

obtuse, acute


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).


5

Which of the following is not required to define the slope-intercept equation for a line?

42% Answer Correctly

x-intercept

\({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\)

slope

y-intercept


Solution

A line on the coordinate grid can be defined by a slope-intercept equation: y = mx + b. For a given value of x, the value of y can be determined given the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) of the line. The slope of a line is change in y over change in x, \({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\), and the y-intercept is the y-coordinate where the line crosses the vertical y-axis.
