1

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of __________ sides.

70% Answer Correctly

parallel

equal angle

equal length

right angle


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


2

What is 6a9 + 7a9?

74% Answer Correctly
13a18
42a18
13a9
a918

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.

6a9 + 7a9 = 13a9


3

Which of the following is not true about both rectangles and squares?

63% Answer Correctly

the lengths of all sides are equal

all interior angles are right angles

the area is length x width

the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all four sides


Solution

A rectangle is a parallelogram containing four right angles. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) are equal and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d) or, comonly, 2 x length x width. The area of a rectangle is length x width. A square is a rectangle with four equal length sides. The perimeter of a square is 4 x length of one side (4s) and the area is the length of one side squared (s2).


4

What is the area of a circle with a radius of 5?

69% Answer Correctly
4π
2π
64π
25π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2:

a = πr2
a = π(52)
a = 25π


5

If angle a = 55° and angle b = 47° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
125°
143°
152°
118°

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° - 55° - 47° = 78°

So, d° = 47° + 78° = 125°

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° - 55° = 125°
