This diagram represents two parallel lines with a transversal. If c° = 20, what is the value of b°?

73% Answer Correctly
13
143
160
16

Solution

For parallel lines with a transversal, the following relationships apply:

  • angles in the same position on different parallel lines equal each other (a° = w°, b° = x°, c° = z°, d° = y°)
  • alternate interior angles are equal (a° = z°, b° = y°, c° = w°, d° = x°)
  • 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°)

Applying these relationships starting with c° = 20, the value of b° is 160.

If a = 4, b = 7, c = 1, and d = 1, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
18
13
27
20

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 4 + 7 + 1 + 1
p = 13

Solve for y:
8y - 7 > \( \frac{y}{7} \)

44% Answer Correctly
y > \(\frac{49}{55}\)
y > -\(\frac{12}{35}\)
y > -2\(\frac{7}{19}\)
y > 1\(\frac{23}{33}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the > sign and the answer on the other.

8y - 7 > \( \frac{y}{7} \)
7 x (8y - 7) > y
(7 x 8y) + (7 x -7) > y
56y - 49 > y
56y - 49 - y > 0
56y - y > 49
55y > 49
y > \( \frac{49}{55} \)
y > \(\frac{49}{55}\)

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 7, length (l) = 3, and width (w) = 1. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
105
315
21
54

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 7 x 3 x 1
v = 21


5

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 6 and radius (r) = 9. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
486π
343π
36π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(92 x 6)
v = 486π
