1

If AD = 23 and BD = 17, AB = ?

76% Answer Correctly
5
18
6
19

Solution

The entire length of this line is represented by AD which is AB + BD:

AD = AB + BD

Solving for AB:

AB = AD - BD
AB = 23 - 17
AB = 6


2

If a = 6, b = 2, c = 9, and d = 2, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
19
30
15
22

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 6 + 2 + 9 + 2
p = 19


3

If side a = 4, side b = 3, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

64% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{29} \)
\( \sqrt{58} \)
5
\( \sqrt{90} \)

Solution

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 42 + 32
c2 = 16 + 9
c2 = 25
c = \( \sqrt{25} \)
c = 5


4

On this circle, a line segment connecting point A to point D is called:

46% Answer Correctly

circumference

chord

radius

diameter


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).

Simplify (6a)(5ab) - (7a2)(2b).

62% Answer Correctly
16a2b
44a2b
-16ab2
99ab2

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

(6a)(5ab) - (7a2)(2b)
(6 x 5)(a x a x b) - (7 x 2)(a2 x b)
(30)(a1+1 x b) - (14)(a2b)
30a2b - 14a2b
16a2b
