1

A(n) __________ is to a parallelogram as a square is to a rectangle.

51% Answer Correctly

quadrilateral

rhombus

triangle

trapezoid
Solution

A rhombus is a parallelogram with four equal-length sides. A square is a rectangle with four equal-length sides.

2

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).

3

Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

74% Answer Correctly

deconstructing

squaring

normalizing

factoring
Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.

4

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 5, length (l) = 5, and width (w) = 3. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
88
110
48
342
Solution

The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):

sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 5 x 3) + (2 x 3 x 5) + (2 x 5 x 5)
sa = (30) + (30) + (50)
sa = 110

5

The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 6, b = 9, c = 7, d = 8, and h = 4. What is the area?

51% Answer Correctly
10
34
25
15
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(9 + 8)(4)
a = ½(17)(4)
a = ½(68) = \( \frac{68}{2} \)
a = 34
