1

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

70% Answer Correctly

parallel

right angle

equal length

equal angle


Solution

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


2

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

91% Answer Correctly

x-axis

origin

all of these

y-axis


Solution

The coordinate grid is composed of a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. The center of the grid, where the x-axis and y-axis meet, is called the origin.


3

Which of the following statements about math operations is incorrect?

71% Answer Correctly

all of these statements are correct

you can subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent

you can multiply monomials that have different variables and different exponents

you can add monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent


Solution

You can only add or subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent. For example, 2a + 4a = 6a and 4a2 - a2 = 3a2 but 2a + 4b and 7a - 3b cannot be combined. However, you can multiply and divide monomials with unlike terms. For example, 2a x 6b = 12ab.


4

If a = 4, b = 2, c = 6, and d = 8, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
14
13
20
22

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 4 + 2 + 6 + 8
p = 20


5

Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?

50% Answer Correctly

the area of a parallelogram is base x height

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides


Solution

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).
