100

A pair of adjacent supplementary angles

Linear pair

100

Will the lengths of 7.3 cm, 5 cm and 2.1 form a triangle? Yes or no?

No, they will NOT form a triangle because the sum of the two shortest sides is less than the third side.

100

When triangle NED is congruent to triangle RWO, this is the angle that corresponds to angle R

Angle N

100

A parallelogram with four right angles

Either a square or a rectangle

100

The exact area of a circle whose circumference is 20 inches

10.1

200

Lines that lie in the same plane but never intersect

Parallel Lines

200

The measure of a base angle in an isosceles triangle whose vertex angle is 37.5 degrees

(180-37.5)/2

71.25 degrees

200

A polygon with all congruent segments and congruent angles

Regular Polygon

200

A quadrilateral that is both equiangular and equilateral

Square

200

The diameter of a circle if the circle's circumference is 75 pi inches

75 inches

300

The converse of the conditional:

"If you don't water your flowers then they will wilt"

"If your flowers are wilted then you didn't water them"

300

How do you know that a triangle with lengths of 5.4”, 7.2” and 9” is definitely a right triangle?

What is because 5.4^2 + 7.2^2 = 9^2 ?

300

The sum of the interior angles of an 8-sided polygon

1080 degrees -- (n-2)(180) or 6*180

300

The value of x when the four angles of a quadrilateral are given by:

2x,   x-5,   3x-2,   and   5x+19

x = 31.6

300

If a line is tangent to a circle, this is the measure of the angle at the point of tangency formed with the radius of the circle at that point.

90 degrees

400

This is the distance between (-9, 3) and (1, -5)

The square root of 164 or about 12.8

400

The EXACT length of a leg if a right triangle's other two sides measure 12 cm and 18 cm

The square root of 180 or 13.4 cm

400

The slope of a line perpendicular to a line with slope of 5/3

Slope of -3/5

Slopes are opposite reciprocals of each other

400

What is the vocabulary word that describes when a line cuts a segment exactly in half.

The line _________ the segment.

Bisects
400

The location of the vertex of any central angle in a circle

The center of the circle

500

Lines that intersect and form a 90 degree angle

Perpendicular Lines

500

Draw an example of the midsegment of a triangle

Pretty pictures

500

The volume of a triangular pyramid with height of 36 in whose base is a right triangle with dimensions of 6 in, 8 in and 10 in

(hint: which sides of the triangular base will you use to find the area of the base?)

what is volume of 288 cu. inches

area of base is 1/2 of 6*8 or 24. then volume is 1/3 * 24 * 36

500

Two rectangles are similar.

One rectangle has a length of 5 and a width of 10.

The other rectangle has a length of 15. What is it's width?

30 - Multiply by 3 or cross-multiply and divide

500
