This diagram represents two parallel lines with a transversal. If c° = 35, what is the value of x°?
| 145 | |
| 140 | |
| 141 | |
| 142 |
For parallel lines with a transversal, the following relationships apply:
Applying these relationships starting with c° = 35, the value of x° is 145.
Which of the following statements about parallel lines with a transversal is not correct?
same-side interior angles are complementary and equal each other |
|
all acute angles equal each other |
|
angles in the same position on different parallel lines are called corresponding angles |
|
all of the angles formed by a transversal are called interior angles |
Parallel lines are lines that share the same slope (steepness) and therefore never intersect. A transversal occurs when a set of parallel lines are crossed by another line. All of the angles formed by a transversal are called interior angles and angles in the same position on different parallel lines equal each other (a° = w°, b° = x°, c° = z°, d° = y°) and are called corresponding angles. Alternate interior angles are equal (a° = z°, b° = y°, c° = w°, d° = x°) and all acute angles (a° = c° = w° = z°) and all obtuse angles (b° = d° = x° = y°) equal each other. Same-side interior angles are supplementary and add up to 180° (e.g. a° + d° = 180°, d° + c° = 180°).
If side a = 6, side b = 5, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?
| \( \sqrt{130} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{52} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{58} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{61} \) |
According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:
c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 62 + 52
c2 = 36 + 25
c2 = 61
c = \( \sqrt{61} \)
Which of the following is not a part of PEMDAS, the acronym for math order of operations?
addition |
|
pairs |
|
division |
|
exponents |
When solving an equation with two variables, 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.)
What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 12?
| 5π | |
| 12π | |
| 8π | |
| 10π |
The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:
c = πd
c = 12π
