1

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

51% Answer Correctly

rhombus

triangle

quadrilateral

trapezoid


Solution

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


2

If the base of this triangle is 3 and the height is 7, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
66
50
90
10\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 3 x 7 = \( \frac{21}{2} \) = 10\(\frac{1}{2}\)


3

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

60% Answer Correctly

vertical, supplementary

acute, obtuse

supplementary, vertical

obtuse, acute


Solution

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).


4

If side x = 8cm, side y = 5cm, and side z = 12cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
32cm
25cm
28cm
36cm

Solution

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

p = x + y + z
p = 8cm + 5cm + 12cm = 25cm


5

Simplify (5a)(5ab) - (6a2)(5b).

59% Answer Correctly
55a2b
-5a2b
5ab2
110a2b

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

(5a)(5ab) - (6a2)(5b)
(5 x 5)(a x a x b) - (6 x 5)(a2 x b)
(25)(a1+1 x b) - (30)(a2b)
25a2b - 30a2b
-5a2b
