1

For this diagram, the Pythagorean theorem states that b2 = ?

47% Answer Correctly

c - a

c2 + a2

c2 - a2

a2 - c2

Solution

The Pythagorean theorem defines the relationship between the side lengths of a right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse squared (c2) is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared (a2 + b2): c2 = a2 + b2 or, solved for c, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)

2

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

91% Answer Correctly

x-axis

origin

y-axis

all of these
Solution

The coordinate grid is composed of a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. The center of the grid, where the x-axis and y-axis meet, is called the origin.

3

A right angle measures:

91% Answer Correctly

180°

360°

90°

45°
Solution

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.

4

If BD = 19 and AD = 29, AB = ?

76% Answer Correctly
7
3
10
2
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 = 29 - 19
AB = 10

5

On this circle, a line segment connecting point A to point D is called:

46% Answer Correctly

circumference

radius

chord

diameter
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).
