1

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -8) and (2, 2). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
2
-1\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -8) and (2, 2) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(2.0) - (-8.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{10}{4} \)
m = 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)


2

If the base of this triangle is 4 and the height is 6, what is the area?

59% Answer Correctly
30
12
40
17\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 4 x 6 = \( \frac{24}{2} \) = 12


3

If a = c = 4, b = d = 5, and the blue angle = 53°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

66% Answer Correctly
6
72
20
10

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 4 x 5
a = 20


4

A right angle measures:

91% 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.


5

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

vertical, supplementary

supplementary, vertical

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).
