1

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

83% Answer Correctly

monomial

polynomial

binomial

quadratic


Solution

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


2

A quadrilateral is a shape with __________ sides.

91% Answer Correctly

4

2

3

5


Solution

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


3

If the base of this triangle is 8 and the height is 4, what is the area?

59% Answer Correctly
55
33
16
21

Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 8 x 4 = \( \frac{32}{2} \) = 16


4

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

71% Answer Correctly

radius

chord

diameter

circumference


Solution

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).


5

If side a = 8, side b = 3, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

64% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{73} \)
\( \sqrt{74} \)
\( \sqrt{113} \)
\( \sqrt{5} \)

Solution

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 82 + 32
c2 = 64 + 9
c2 = 73
c = \( \sqrt{73} \)
