1

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

vertical, supplementary

acute, obtuse

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).


2

Factor y2 - 2y - 3

54% Answer Correctly
(y + 3)(y + 1)
(y - 3)(y + 1)
(y + 3)(y - 1)
(y - 3)(y - 1)

Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL method (First, Outside, Inside, Last) in reverse. First, find the two Last terms that will multiply to produce -3 as well and sum (Inside, Outside) to equal -2. For this problem, those two numbers are -3 and 1. Then, plug these into a set of binomials using the square root of the First variable (y2):

y2 - 2y - 3
y2 + (-3 + 1)y + (-3 x 1)
(y - 3)(y + 1)


3

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

46% Answer Correctly

trisects

midpoints

intersects

bisects


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.


4

If angle a = 38° and angle b = 65° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
92°
83°
90°
77°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 38° - 65° = 77°


5

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 9, length (l) = 9, and width (w) = 8. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
648
168
60
20

Solution

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

v = h x l x w
v = 9 x 9 x 8
v = 648
