Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?

50% Answer Correctly

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides

the area of a parallelogram is base x height

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral


Solution

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).


2

If BD = 11 and AD = 19, AB = ?

76% Answer Correctly
1
3
5
8

Solution

The entire length of this line is represented by AD which is AB + BD:

AD = AB + BD

Solving for AB:

AB = AD - BD
AB = 19 - 11
AB = 8


3

If a = c = 6, b = d = 8, and the blue angle = 60°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

66% Answer Correctly
54
8
24
48

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 6 x 8
a = 48


4

If the base of this triangle is 2 and the height is 1, what is the area?

59% Answer Correctly
1
49\(\frac{1}{2}\)
21
18

Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 2 x 1 = \( \frac{2}{2} \) = 1


5

What is 3a2 + 4a2?

75% Answer Correctly
-1
7a2
-a4
a24

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.

3a2 + 4a2 = 7a2
