1

If a = c = 6, b = d = 7, what is the area of this rectangle?

80% Answer Correctly
42
1
16
72

Solution

The area of a rectangle is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 6 x 7
a = 42


2

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. Which of the following is not a part of the FOIL method?

85% Answer Correctly

Odd

First

Last

Inside


Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses.


3

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

62% Answer Correctly

acute, obtuse

supplementary, vertical

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).


4

If angle a = 25° and angle b = 57° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
137°
155°
125°
110°

Solution

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite:

d° = b° + c°

To find angle c, remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:

180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 25° - 57° = 98°

So, d° = 57° + 98° = 155°

A shortcut to get this answer is to remember that angles around a line add up to 180°:

a° + d° = 180°
d° = 180° - a°
d° = 180° - 25° = 155°


5

What is 2a6 - 3a6?

75% Answer Correctly
6a6
-1a6
5a12
a612

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.

2a6 - 3a6 = -1a6
