    If three of the angles in a quadrilateral are 50, 100, 110 degrees what is the measure of the fourth angle?

    • 40 degrees

    • 100 degrees

    • 130 degrees

    • 160 degrees

    Correct Answer
    A. 100 degrees
    Explanation
    The sum of the angles in a quadrilateral is always 360 degrees. Therefore, to find the measure of the fourth angle, we subtract the sum of the three given angles (50 + 100 + 110 = 260) from 360. 360 - 260 = 100 degrees.

    Approximately how many degrees is the angle XYZ being measured by the protractor?

    • 60

    • 120

    • 85

    • 90

    Correct Answer
    A. 60

    Two sides of a triangle measure 8 centimeters and 13 centimeters. Which of the following could be the length of the third side in order for it to be an isosceles triangle?

    • 4 cm

    • 8 cm

    • 14 cm

    • 18 cm

    Correct Answer
    A. 8 cm
    Explanation
    An isosceles triangle has two sides that are equal in length. In this case, the given sides of the triangle measure 8 cm and 13 cm. To form an isosceles triangle, the third side must also be equal to one of the given sides. Therefore, the length of the third side could be 8 cm.
