A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of the lengths of its four sides.

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.

6a⁹ + 5a⁹ = 11a⁹

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.

-8b + 3z = 8b + 6z + 4
-8b = 8b + 6z + 4 - 3z
-8b - 8b = 6z + 4 - 3z
-16b = 3z + 4
b = \( \frac{3z + 4}{-16} \)
b = \( \frac{3z}{-16} \) + \( \frac{4}{-16} \)
b = -\(\frac{3}{16}\)z - \(\frac{1}{4}\)

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).

A right angle measures 90 degrees and is the intersection of two perpendicular lines. In diagrams, a right angle is indicated by a small box completing a square with the perpendicular lines.
