Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?

49% Answer Correctly

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral

the area of a parallelogram is base x height

the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides


Solution

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).


2

If a = -7 and z = -9, what is the value of -8a(a - z)?

68% Answer Correctly
112
224
210
-18

Solution

To solve this equation, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)

-8a(a - z)
-8(-7)(-7 + 9)
-8(-7)(2)
(56)(2)
112


3

If the base of this triangle is 5 and the height is 6, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
66
15
60
82\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

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

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 5 x 6 = \( \frac{30}{2} \) = 15


4

If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.

45% Answer Correctly

midpoints

intersects

bisects

trisects


Solution

A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.


5

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 4, length (l) = 7, and width (w) = 7. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
72
90
196
32

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 4 x 7 x 7
v = 196
