1

If side a = 9, side b = 8, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

64% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{145} \)
\( \sqrt{65} \)
\( \sqrt{97} \)
\( \sqrt{50} \)

Solution

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 92 + 82
c2 = 81 + 64
c2 = 145
c = \( \sqrt{145} \)


2

3

What is 4a + 4a?

81% Answer Correctly
8a
16a
0
2

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.

4a + 4a = 8a


4

Simplify (5a)(4ab) + (5a2)(9b).

65% Answer Correctly
65a2b
65ab2
126ab2
126a2b

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

(5a)(4ab) + (5a2)(9b)
(5 x 4)(a x a x b) + (5 x 9)(a2 x b)
(20)(a1+1 x b) + (45)(a2b)
20a2b + 45a2b
65a2b


5
