1

Which types of triangles will always have at least two sides of equal length?

54% Answer Correctly

equilateral and right

equilateral, isosceles and right

equilateral and isosceles

isosceles and right


Solution

An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length. An equilateral triangle has three sides of equal length. In a right triangle, two sides meet at a right angle.


2

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

obtuse, acute

vertical, supplementary

supplementary, vertical

acute, obtuse


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).


3

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -6) and (2, 0). What is the slope of this line?

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

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, -6) and (2, 0) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(0.0) - (-6.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{6}{4} \)
m = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)


4

What is 4a9 - 2a9?

74% Answer Correctly
2a9
6a18
a918
8a18

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.

4a9 - 2a9 = 2a9


5

What is 7a8 + 3a8?

75% Answer Correctly
21a8
10a8
a816
4a16

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.

7a8 + 3a8 = 10a8
