1

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

51% Answer Correctly

quadrilateral

rhombus

triangle

trapezoid


Solution

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


2

What is 4a - 9a?

79% Answer Correctly
-5a
-5a2
-5
13a2

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.

4a - 9a = -5a


3

A(n) __________ is two expressions separated by an equal sign.

76% Answer Correctly

equation

formula

problem

expression


Solution

An equation is two expressions separated by an equal sign. The key to solving equations is to repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.


4

If a = c = 4, b = d = 3, what is the area of this rectangle?

80% Answer Correctly
20
14
12
3

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 4 x 3
a = 12


5

The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 5, b = 4, c = 7, d = 9, and h = 3. What is the area?

51% Answer Correctly
13\(\frac{1}{2}\)
19\(\frac{1}{2}\)
35
14

Solution

The area of a trapezoid is one-half the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides multiplied by the height:

a = ½(b + d)(h)
a = ½(4 + 9)(3)
a = ½(13)(3)
a = ½(39) = \( \frac{39}{2} \)
a = 19\(\frac{1}{2}\)
