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

Which of the following statements about math operations is incorrect?

70% Answer Correctly

you can multiply monomials that have different variables and different exponents

all of these statements are correct

you can subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent

you can add monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent
Solution

You can only add or subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent. For example, 2a + 4a = 6a and 4a2 - a2 = 3a2 but 2a + 4b and 7a - 3b cannot be combined. However, you can multiply and divide monomials with unlike terms. For example, 2a x 6b = 12ab.

3

If a = 2, b = 2, c = 9, and d = 4, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
21
19
33
17
Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 2 + 2 + 9 + 4
p = 17

4

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

63% Answer Correctly

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

the lengths of all sides are equal

all interior angles are right angles

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).

5

What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 6?

71% Answer Correctly
14π
22π
6π
38π
Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 6π
