1

If angle a = 27° and angle b = 70° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
83°
108°
105°
101°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 27° - 70° = 83°


2

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

45% Answer Correctly

intersects

trisects

bisects

midpoints


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.


3

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

75% Answer Correctly

right, acute, obtuse

acute, obtuse, right

acute, right, obtuse

right, obtuse, acute


Solution

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


4

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

obtuse, acute

supplementary, vertical

acute, obtuse

vertical, supplementary


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).


5

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

49% Answer Correctly

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

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

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral

the area of a parallelogram is base x height


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).
