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

47% Answer Correctly

a2 - c2

c2 - a2

c - a

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

51% Answer Correctly

quadrilateral

trapezoid

triangle

rhombus


Solution

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


3

What is 2a - 2a?

80% Answer Correctly
0
a2
0a
2

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.

2a - 2a = 0a


4

What is 7a + 6a?

81% Answer Correctly
13a
1
13a2
42a

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.

7a + 6a = 13a


5

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 4, length (l) = 8, and width (w) = 8. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
214
92
256
94

Solution

The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):

sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 8 x 8) + (2 x 8 x 4) + (2 x 8 x 4)
sa = (128) + (64) + (64)
sa = 256
