1

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

supplementary, vertical

obtuse, acute

acute, obtuse

vertical, supplementary


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).


2

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

82% Answer Correctly

quadratic

monomial

polynomial

binomial


Solution

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.


3

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, 0) and (2, -2). What is the slope of this line?

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

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, 0) and (2, -2) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-2.0) - (0.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{-2}{4} \)
m = -\(\frac{1}{2}\)


4

Which of the following is not a part of PEMDAS, the acronym for math order of operations?

88% Answer Correctly

pairs

exponents

addition

division


Solution

When solving an equation with two variables, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)


5

If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.

45% Answer Correctly

trisects

midpoints

bisects

intersects


Solution

A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.
