1

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

75% Answer Correctly

acute, right, obtuse

acute, obtuse, right

right, acute, 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°.


2

If a = c = 6, b = d = 8, and the blue angle = 69°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

66% Answer Correctly
63
72
35
48

Solution

The area of a parallelogram is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 6 x 8
a = 48


3

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 7) and (2, -1). What is the slope-intercept equation for this line?

41% Answer Correctly
y = -2x + 3
y = 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 1
y = -2x - 1
y = 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)x + 2

Solution

The slope-intercept equation for a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept of the line. From the graph, you can see that the y-intercept (the y-value from the point where the line crosses the y-axis) is 3. 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, -1) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-1.0) - (7.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-8}{4} \)
m = -2

Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:

y = -2x + 3


4

The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

77% Answer Correctly

a = π d2

a = π d

a = π r

a = π r2


Solution

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.


5

If AD = 12 and BD = 9, AB = ?

76% Answer Correctly
9
13
15
3

Solution

The entire length of this line is represented by AD which is AB + BD:

AD = AB + BD

Solving for AB:

AB = AD - BD
AB = 12 - 9
AB = 3
