If angle a = 25° and angle b = 64° what is the length of angle d?
| 142° | |
| 139° | |
| 155° | |
| 159° |
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° - 25° - 64° = 91°
So, d° = 64° + 91° = 155°
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° - 25° = 155°
If the area of this square is 9, what is the length of one of the diagonals?
| 5\( \sqrt{2} \) | |
| 3\( \sqrt{2} \) | |
| 7\( \sqrt{2} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{2} \) |
To find the diagonal we need to know the length of one of the square's sides. We know the area and the area of a square is the length of one side squared:
a = s2
so the length of one side of the square is:
s = \( \sqrt{a} \) = \( \sqrt{9} \) = 3
The Pythagorean theorem defines the square of the hypotenuse (diagonal) of a triangle with a right angle as the sum of the squares of the other two sides:
c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 32 + 32
c2 = 18
c = \( \sqrt{18} \) = \( \sqrt{9 x 2} \) = \( \sqrt{9} \) \( \sqrt{2} \)
c = 3\( \sqrt{2} \)
For this diagram, the Pythagorean theorem states that b2 = ?
c2 + a2 |
|
a2 - c2 |
|
c - a |
|
c2 - a2 |
The Pythagorean theorem defines the relationship between the side lengths of a right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse squared (c2) is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared (a2 + b2): c2 = a2 + b2 or, solved for c, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)
The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?
c = π d |
|
c = π r2 |
|
c = π d2 |
|
c = π r |
The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.
