1

If BD = 18 and AD = 19, AB = ?

75% Answer Correctly
17
3
7
1
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 = 19 - 18
AB = 1

2

Simplify (y + 8)(y - 3)

62% Answer Correctly
y2 - 5y - 24
y2 + 5y - 24
y2 + 11y + 24
y2 - 11y + 24
Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses:

(y + 8)(y - 3)
(y x y) + (y x -3) + (8 x y) + (8 x -3)
y2 - 3y + 8y - 24
y2 + 5y - 24

3

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

51% Answer Correctly

quadrilateral

rhombus

trapezoid

triangle
Solution

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

4

Which of the following statements about a triangle is not true?

57% Answer Correctly

perimeter = sum of side lengths

sum of interior angles = 180°

exterior angle = sum of two adjacent interior angles

area = ½bh
Solution

A triangle is a three-sided polygon. It has three interior angles that add up to 180° (a + b + c = 180°). An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite (d = b + c). The perimeter of a triangle is equal to the sum of the lengths of its three sides, the height of a triangle is equal to the length from the base to the opposite vertex (angle) and the area equals one-half triangle base x height: a = ½ base x height.

5

Last

Odd

First

Inside
Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses.
