On this circle, line segment AB is the:

71% Answer Correctly

diameter

chord

circumference

radius


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).


2

What is 5a - 2a?

80% Answer Correctly
3a2
3a
a2
7

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.

5a - 2a = 3a


3

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

acute, obtuse

vertical, supplementary

obtuse, acute

supplementary, vertical


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 a = 9, b = 3, c = 5, and d = 2, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
20
25
19
22

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 9 + 3 + 5 + 2
p = 19


5

Which of the following is not a part of PEMDAS, the acronym for math order of operations?

92% Answer Correctly

addition

division

pairs

exponents


Solution

When solving an equation with two variables, 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.)
