1

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

61% Answer Correctly

obtuse, acute

supplementary, vertical

acute, obtuse

vertical, supplementary


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).


2

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

59% Answer Correctly
98
17\(\frac{1}{2}\)
10\(\frac{1}{2}\)
22\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

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

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


3

What is the circumference of a circle with a radius of 3?

71% Answer Correctly
11π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π. Circle diameter is 2 x radius:

c = πd
c = π(2 * r)
c = π(2 * 3)
c = 6π


4

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. Which of the following is not a part of the FOIL method?

84% Answer Correctly

Inside

First

Odd

Last


Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses.


5

Solve for z:
2z - 1 = \( \frac{z}{-9} \)

46% Answer Correctly
-1\(\frac{1}{4}\)
\(\frac{9}{19}\)
1\(\frac{23}{25}\)
-\(\frac{1}{8}\)

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 equal sign and the answer on the other.

2z - 1 = \( \frac{z}{-9} \)
-9 x (2z - 1) = z
(-9 x 2z) + (-9 x -1) = z
-18z + 9 = z
-18z + 9 - z = 0
-18z - z = -9
-19z = -9
z = \( \frac{-9}{-19} \)
z = \(\frac{9}{19}\)
