For this diagram, the Pythagorean theorem states that b2 = ?

47% Answer Correctly

a2 - c2

c - a

c2 - a2

c2 + a2


Solution

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, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)


2

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of __________ sides.

69% Answer Correctly

equal angle

parallel

right angle

equal length


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


3

If AD = 19 and BD = 18, AB = ?

75% Answer Correctly
11
20
1
17

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 = 19 - 18
AB = 1


4

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

81% Answer Correctly

polynomial

monomial

quadratic

binomial


Solution

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.

What is 3a2 - 7a2?

73% Answer Correctly
-4a4
-4
10
-4a2

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.

3a2 - 7a2 = -4a2
