What is 4a8 + 5a8?

74% Answer Correctly
-1
-a16
9a8
20a16

Solution

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

4a8 + 5a8 = 9a8


2

69% Answer Correctly

right angle

equal angle

equal length

parallel


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


3

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

51% Answer Correctly

triangle

rhombus

quadrilateral

trapezoid


Solution

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


4

If a = c = 6, b = d = 5, and the blue angle = 58°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

65% Answer Correctly
30
42
18
6

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 6 x 5
a = 30


5

Which of the following is not true about both rectangles and squares?

63% Answer Correctly

all interior angles are right angles

the lengths of all sides are equal

the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all four sides

the area is length x width


Solution

A rectangle is a parallelogram containing four right angles. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) are equal and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d) or, comonly, 2 x length x width. The area of a rectangle is length x width. A square is a rectangle with four equal length sides. The perimeter of a square is 4 x length of one side (4s) and the area is the length of one side squared (s2).
