. Point Z lies between X and Y. If XY = 77 and ZY = 28, what is the length of XZ?
- A.
105
- B.
38.5
- C.
49
- D.
47
Correct Answer
C. 49Explanation
Since point Z lies between points X and Y, the length of XZ can be found by subtracting the length of ZY from the length of XY. Therefore, XZ = XY - ZY = 77 - 28 = 49.Rate this question:

What is the measure of angle BAD?
- A.
6
- B.
56
- C.
90
- D.
180
Correct Answer
B. 56Explanation
The measure of angle BAD is 56 degrees. This can be determined by using the fact that in a triangle, the sum of all interior angles is equal to 180 degrees. Since angle B and angle D form a straight line, they are supplementary angles and their sum is 180 degrees. Therefore, angle BAD can be found by subtracting the given angle B, which is 90 degrees, from 180 degrees. 180 - 90 = 90 degrees.Rate this question:

- D.
None of the above
Correct Answer
D. None of the aboveExplanation
The word "None of the above" is the best description for the relationship between the two angles below because none of the options provided (complimentary, supplementary, linear pair) accurately describe the relationship between the angles. The question does not provide any information about the angles, so it is not possible to determine their relationship based on the given options.Rate this question:

What word best describes the relationship between angle 1 and angle 2?
- A.
Adjacent angles
- B.
Linear pair
- C.
Supplementary
- D.
All of the above
- E.
None of the above
Correct Answer
D. All of the aboveExplanation
The word "All of the above" is the correct answer because angle 1 and angle 2 can have multiple relationships. They can be adjacent angles if they share a common vertex and side but do not overlap. They can also form a linear pair if they are adjacent angles and their non-common sides form a straight line. Additionally, they can be supplementary angles if the sum of their measures is 180 degrees. Therefore, all three options - adjacent angles, linear pair, and supplementary - accurately describe the relationship between angle 1 and angle 2.Rate this question:

If angle BAD and angle BAC form a linear pair, and mBAD = 2x and mBAC = 100, what is x?
- A.
20
- B.
40
- C.
80
- D.
5
Correct Answer
B. 40Explanation
If angle BAD and angle BAC form a linear pair, it means that they are adjacent angles and their sum is equal to 180 degrees. Therefore, we can set up the equation 2x + 100 = 180 and solve for x. By subtracting 100 from both sides of the equation, we get 2x = 80. Dividing both sides by 2, we find that x = 40.Rate this question:

If angle A and angle L are complimentary, and mA = x+15, and mL = 34, What is x?
- A.
146
- B.
41
- C.
56
- D.
131
Correct Answer
B. 41Explanation
If angle A and angle L are complementary, it means that their sum is equal to 90 degrees. Therefore, mA + mL = 90. Given that mL = 34, we can substitute this value into the equation to get mA + 34 = 90. By solving for mA, we find that mA = 56. Since mA = x + 15, we can substitute this value into the equation to get 56 = x + 15. Solving for x, we find that x = 41.Rate this question:

If a 90° angle is bisected and then each new angle is also bisected, what is the measure of the smallest angle formed?
- A.
180
- B.
45
- C.
22.5
- D.
11.25
Correct Answer
C. 22.5Explanation
When a 90° angle is bisected, it is divided into two equal angles of 45° each. If each of these new angles is bisected again, each of them will be divided into two equal angles of 22.5° each. Therefore, the measure of the smallest angle formed is 22.5°.Rate this question:

BD bisects angle ABC. If mABD = 34, what is mABC?
- A.
None of the above
- B.
17
- C.
34
- D.
68
Correct Answer
D. 68Explanation
If BD bisects angle ABC, it means that angle ABD and angle DBC are congruent. Given that mABD = 34, we can conclude that mDBC is also 34. Since angle ABC is the sum of angle ABD and angle DBC, we can calculate its measure by adding the measures of angle ABD and angle DBC, which gives us 34 + 34 = 68. Therefore, mABC is 68.Rate this question:

- D.
34°
Correct Answer
C. 128°Explanation
The measure of angle BAE is 128° because it is the only option that is close to a right angle. A right angle measures 90°, and 128° is the closest option to that. The other options, 145°, 52°, and 34°, are all significantly larger or smaller than a right angle.Rate this question:

- A.
Linear pair
- B.
Vertical angles
- C.
Supplementary
- D.
Complimentary
Correct Answer
B. Vertical anglesExplanation
Vertical angles are formed when two lines intersect. They are opposite angles and have the same measure. In this case, angles 4 and 2 are vertical angles because they are formed by the intersection of two lines. Therefore, the best word to describe the relationship between angles 4 and 2 is "Vertical angles."Rate this question:

It is possible to have a triangle with side lengths 4, 5, and 9.
- A.
True
- B.
False
Correct Answer
B. FalseExplanation
A triangle with side lengths 4, 5, and 9 is not possible because the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must always be greater than the length of the third side. In this case, the sum of the lengths of the two smaller sides (4 and 5) is 9, which is equal to the length of the longest side. According to the triangle inequality theorem, this means that the three sides cannot form a triangle.Rate this question:

- C.
2
- D.
3
Correct Answer
D. 3Explanation
The answer is 3 because it is the last number in the given sequence. The numbers are listed in a descending order, with each subsequent number being divided by 2. Starting from 10, we divide by 2 to get 5, then divide 5 by 2 to get 2.5, and finally divide 2.5 by 2 to get 1.25. Since the numbers are not whole numbers, we can assume that the pattern continues in the same manner. Therefore, the next number in the sequence would be 1.25 divided by 2, which equals 0.625. However, since 0.625 is not given as an option, the correct answer is 3.Rate this question:

A scale model of the Eiffel Tower is 3 feet high and the 1 foot wide. If the real thing is 60 feet high, how wide is it in real life?
- A.
20 feet
- B.
30 feet
- C.
10 feet
- D.
25 feet
Correct Answer
A. 20 feetExplanation
The scale model of the Eiffel Tower is 3 feet high and 1 foot wide. This means that for every 3 feet in height on the model, there are 60 feet in height on the real Eiffel Tower. Using this ratio, we can determine the width of the real Eiffel Tower. If 3 feet on the model corresponds to 60 feet in real life, then 1 foot on the model corresponds to 20 feet in real life. Therefore, the width of the real Eiffel Tower is 20 feet.Rate this question:

AAS
Correct Answer
B. SASExplanation
The SAS (Side-Angle-Side) congruence theorem proves that the two triangles are congruent. This theorem states that if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent. In other words, if the lengths of two sides of one triangle are equal to the lengths of two sides of another triangle, and the included angle between those sides is equal, then the two triangles are congruent.Rate this question:

Stephanie takes a photo that measures 4 inches wide and 5 inches tall. The photo is enlarged to be 10 inches wide without distorting its shape. How tall will the enlarged photo be?
- A.
12 inches
- B.
12.5 inches
- C.
20 inches
- D.
25 inches
Correct Answer
B. 12.5 inchesExplanation
When Stephanie's photo is enlarged to be 10 inches wide without distorting its shape, the height of the enlarged photo will also increase proportionally. Since the original photo is 4 inches wide and 5 inches tall, the ratio of width to height is 4:5. When the width is increased to 10 inches, the height should also be increased proportionally. Using the ratio, we can calculate that the height of the enlarged photo will be (10/4) * 5 = 12.5 inches.Rate this question:

5
- B.
1/5
- C.

- D.
1/3
Correct Answer
B. 1/5Explanation
The scale factor from ABC to DEF is 1/5. This means that for every 1 unit of length in ABC, there is 1/5 unit of length in DEF. This indicates that DEF is smaller in size compared to ABC, with each side or dimension being 1/5 of the corresponding side or dimension in ABC.Rate this question:

If ABC and DEF are similar triangles and the scale factor from DEF to ABC is 1/2, what is the length of DE?
- A.
13
- B.
52
- C.
40
- D.
10
Correct Answer
A. 13Explanation
If ABC and DEF are similar triangles, it means that they have the same shape but different sizes. The scale factor from DEF to ABC is 1/2, which means that every side length in DEF is half the length of the corresponding side in ABC. Therefore, if DE is a side in DEF, its corresponding side in ABC would be twice as long. Since the length of DE is not given, we cannot determine its exact length. Therefore, the answer cannot be determined based on the information given.Rate this question:
