1

Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.

75% Answer Correctly

acute, right, obtuse

right, acute, obtuse

right, obtuse, acute

acute, obtuse, right


Solution

An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.


2

If side x = 14cm, side y = 12cm, and side z = 9cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

85% Answer Correctly
33cm
35cm
28cm
31cm

Solution

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 14cm + 12cm + 9cm = 35cm


3

Find the value of c:
6c + z = -8
7c + 6z = -9

42% Answer Correctly
-1\(\frac{10}{29}\)
\(\frac{17}{19}\)
-\(\frac{18}{47}\)
-\(\frac{23}{53}\)

Solution

You need to find the value of c so solve the first equation in terms of z:

6c + z = -8
z = -8 - 6c

then substitute the result (-8 - 6c) into the second equation:

7c + 6(-8 - 6c) = -9
7c + (6 x -8) + (6 x -6c) = -9
7c - 48 - 36c = -9
7c - 36c = -9 + 48
-29c = 39
c = \( \frac{39}{-29} \)
c = -1\(\frac{10}{29}\)


4

If a = 7, b = 8, c = 5, and d = 5, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
15
27
25
17

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 7 + 8 + 5 + 5
p = 25


5

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

91% Answer Correctly

division

exponents

addition

pairs


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.)
