Which of the following statements about parallel lines with a transversal is not correct?
all acute angles equal each other |
|
all of the angles formed by a transversal are called interior angles |
|
same-side interior angles are complementary and equal each other |
|
angles in the same position on different parallel lines are called corresponding angles |
Parallel lines are lines that share the same slope (steepness) and therefore never intersect. A transversal occurs when a set of parallel lines are crossed by another line. All of the angles formed by a transversal are called interior angles and angles in the same position on different parallel lines equal each other (a° = w°, b° = x°, c° = z°, d° = y°) and are called corresponding angles. Alternate interior angles are equal (a° = z°, b° = y°, c° = w°, d° = x°) and all acute angles (a° = c° = w° = z°) and all obtuse angles (b° = d° = x° = y°) equal each other. Same-side interior angles are supplementary and add up to 180° (e.g. a° + d° = 180°, d° + c° = 180°).
Which types of triangles will always have at least two sides of equal length?
isosceles and right |
|
equilateral and right |
|
equilateral and isosceles |
|
equilateral, isosceles and right |
An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length. An equilateral triangle has three sides of equal length. In a right triangle, two sides meet at a right angle.
Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.
acute, obtuse, right |

right, acute, obtuse |
An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.
What is the circumference of a circle with a radius of 15?
| 30π | |
| 9π | |
| 14π | |
| 2π |
The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π. Circle diameter is 2 x radius:
c = πd
c = π(2 * r)
c = π(2 * 15)
c = 30π
What is the area of a circle with a diameter of 8?
| 5π | |
| 9π | |
| 16π | |
| 36π |
The formula for area is πr2. Radius is circle \( \frac{diameter}{2} \):
r = \( \frac{d}{2} \)
r = \( \frac{8}{2} \)
r = 4
a = πr2
a = π(42)
a = 16π
