1

Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.

75% Answer Correctly

right, acute, obtuse

right, obtuse, acute

acute, obtuse, right

acute, right, obtuse


Solution

An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.


2

Solve for y:
-y - 2 < -9 + y

55% Answer Correctly
y < 3\(\frac{1}{2}\)
y < \(\frac{1}{6}\)
y < 1\(\frac{3}{4}\)
y < 2

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the < sign and the answer on the other.

-y - 2 < -9 + y
-y < -9 + y + 2
-y - y < -9 + 2
-2y < -7
y < \( \frac{-7}{-2} \)
y < 3\(\frac{1}{2}\)


3

Find the value of b:
-6b + x = -6
b + 2x = -2

42% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{10}{13}\)
\(\frac{6}{11}\)
-8
1

Solution

You need to find the value of b so solve the first equation in terms of x:

-6b + x = -6
x = -6 + 6b

then substitute the result (-6 - -6b) into the second equation:

b + 2(-6 + 6b) = -2
b + (2 x -6) + (2 x 6b) = -2
b - 12 + 12b = -2
b + 12b = -2 + 12
13b = 10
b = \( \frac{10}{13} \)
b = \(\frac{10}{13}\)


4

If b = 2 and y = 7, what is the value of -8b(b - y)?

69% Answer Correctly
288
80
-16
0

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.)

-8b(b - y)
-8(2)(2 - 7)
-8(2)(-5)
(-16)(-5)
80


5

Which types of triangles will always have at least two sides of equal length?

54% Answer Correctly

equilateral, isosceles and right

equilateral and isosceles

equilateral and right

isosceles and right


Solution

An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length. An equilateral triangle has three sides of equal length. In a right triangle, two sides meet at a right angle.
