1

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

45% Answer Correctly

midpoints

trisects

bisects

intersects


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.


2

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

75% Answer Correctly

right, obtuse, acute

acute, obtuse, right

right, acute, obtuse

acute, right, obtuse


Solution

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


3

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 3) and (2, -3). What is the slope-intercept equation for this line?

41% Answer Correctly
y = -1\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 0
y = -2\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 3
y = -2x - 3
y = \(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 3

Solution

The slope-intercept equation for a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept of the line. From the graph, you can see that the y-intercept (the y-value from the point where the line crosses the y-axis) is 0. The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 3) and (2, -3) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-3.0) - (3.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-6}{4} \)
m = -1\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:

y = -1\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 0


4

What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 7?

71% Answer Correctly
19π
10π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 7π


5

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

60% Answer Correctly

vertical, supplementary

supplementary, vertical

acute, obtuse

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).
