1

A right angle measures:

91% Answer Correctly

180°

360°

45°

90°


Solution

A right angle measures 90 degrees and is the intersection of two perpendicular lines. In diagrams, a right angle is indicated by a small box completing a square with the perpendicular lines.


2

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

61% Answer Correctly

supplementary, vertical

acute, obtuse

vertical, supplementary

obtuse, acute


Solution

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).


3

Simplify (4a)(6ab) + (4a2)(4b).

66% Answer Correctly
40a2b
8ab2
-8ab2
80a2b

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.

(4a)(6ab) + (4a2)(4b)
(4 x 6)(a x a x b) + (4 x 4)(a2 x b)
(24)(a1+1 x b) + (16)(a2b)
24a2b + 16a2b
40a2b


4

If a = 2 and z = -8, what is the value of 2a(a - z)?

69% Answer Correctly
-1296
-400
40
-48

Solution

To solve this equation, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)

2a(a - z)
2(2)(2 + 8)
2(2)(10)
(4)(10)
40


5

Simplify 9a x 6b.

86% Answer Correctly
54a2b2
15ab
54\( \frac{b}{a} \)
54ab

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.

9a x 6b = (9 x 6) (a x b) = 54ab
