1

What is 4a - 3a?

79% Answer Correctly
12a2
a2
1a
7a2

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.

4a - 3a = 1a


2

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

51% Answer Correctly

triangle

quadrilateral

rhombus

trapezoid


Solution

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


3

A right angle measures:

90% Answer Correctly

360°

90°

45°

180°


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.


4

If side a = 5, side b = 3, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

64% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{34} \)
\( \sqrt{20} \)
\( \sqrt{65} \)
\( \sqrt{130} \)

Solution

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 52 + 32
c2 = 25 + 9
c2 = 34
c = \( \sqrt{34} \)


5

If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.

45% Answer Correctly

midpoints

bisects

intersects

trisects


Solution

A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.
