1

If angle a = 70° and angle b = 59° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
51°
60°
108°
107°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 70° - 59° = 51°


2

The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 5, b = 7, c = 7, d = 5, and h = 3. What is the area?

51% Answer Correctly
12
18
30
16\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

The area of a trapezoid is one-half the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides multiplied by the height:

a = ½(b + d)(h)
a = ½(7 + 5)(3)
a = ½(12)(3)
a = ½(36) = \( \frac{36}{2} \)
a = 18


3

Solve 4b + b = 3b - 7z + 4 for b in terms of z.

34% Answer Correctly
-8z + 4
-\(\frac{2}{11}\)z + \(\frac{8}{11}\)
-\(\frac{2}{5}\)z + \(\frac{3}{5}\)
\(\frac{2}{7}\)z + \(\frac{1}{7}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, isolate the variable for which you are solving (b) on one side of the equation and put everything else on the other side.

4b + z = 3b - 7z + 4
4b = 3b - 7z + 4 - z
4b - 3b = -7z + 4 - z
b = -8z + 4


4

What is 8a2 + 7a2?

75% Answer Correctly
1
a24
15a2
56a2

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.

8a2 + 7a2 = 15a2


5

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -7) and (2, 5). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-2
2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
3

Solution

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, -7) and (2, 5) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(5.0) - (-7.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{12}{4} \)
m = 3
