1

A(n) __________ is to a parallelogram as a square is to a rectangle.

52% Answer Correctly

trapezoid

rhombus

quadrilateral

triangle


Solution

A rhombus is a parallelogram with four equal-length sides. A square is a rectangle with four equal-length sides.


2

Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

75% Answer Correctly

squaring

deconstructing

normalizing

factoring


Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.


3

If a = c = 5, b = d = 3, and the blue angle = 78°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

66% Answer Correctly
6
15
48
10

Solution

The area of a parallelogram is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 5 x 3
a = 15


4

Which of the following is not true about both rectangles and squares?

63% Answer Correctly

the area is length x width

the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all four sides

all interior angles are right angles

the lengths of all sides are equal


Solution

A rectangle is a parallelogram containing four right angles. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) are equal and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d) or, comonly, 2 x length x width. The area of a rectangle is length x width. A square is a rectangle with four equal length sides. The perimeter of a square is 4 x length of one side (4s) and the area is the length of one side squared (s2).


5

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. Which of the following is not a part of the FOIL method?

84% Answer Correctly

Odd

Inside

First

Last


Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses.
