In Rhombus MNOP, MN = 24, and NO = 2x + 6. What is the value of x?

x = 9

Name the 2 properties that the diagonals of a rectangle have.

They are congruent and bisect each other.

100

True or False.  All squares are rectangles.

True

In a trapezoid, the upper base is 12, and the lower base is 30. What is the median of the trapezoid?
1/2(12 + 30 ) = 1/2(42) = 21

If ABCD is a parallelogram and angle A = 2x + 40, and angle B = 3x - 10. Explain how you would set up the equation.
Add the expressions and set them equal to 180 degrees. ( Consecutive Angles are Supplementary )
200

Can a rhombus be a rectangle? If so, draw a picture. If not, explain why not.

Yes, it would look like a square. It has all the properties of a rhombus and rectangle.

200

In rectangle ABCD, AC = 7x and BD = 3x + 20. What is the value of x?

x = 5.

200

True or False.  All rectangles are squares.

False

200

What is the sum of the exterior angles of an octagon

360 degrees

300
If ABCD is a parallelogram, and AB = 3x - 5, and BC = 6x - 2, and AD = 2x + 12. Explain the equation used to solve the problem.
Set the expressions for sides BC and AD equal to one another.
300

In rhombus ABCD, diagonals AC and BD intersect at E. If the measure of angle BAD = 72, what is the measure of angle CED?

Angle CED = 54, use the right triangles, and the fact that the angles bisect the corner angles.

300

In rectangle ABCD, the diagonals intersect at E. AE = 4x + 20, BC = 7x + 12 and DE = 8x + 4. What is the value of x?

x = 4

300

Name the polygon whose interior angles sum up to 1800 degrees

dodecagon

400

Name the 3 properties that the diagonals of a rhombus have.

diagonals bisect each other diagonals are perpendicular diagonals bisect the angles

400

What do the sides of a rectangle add up to?

The SIDES could ADD to anything. ( The angles add to 360. )

400

One side of a square is 5 cm. What is the length of the diagonal of the square?

5 radical 2 ( 5 times the square root of 2 )

400

What is the measure of 1 interior angle of a regular quadrilateral.

90 degrees

500
In parallelogram ABCD, diagonals AC and BD intersect at E. If angle A = 85, and AE = 3x + 10, and EC = 7x - 30, Find the measure of angle C and the value of x.
Angle C is 85 degrees, and x = 10, b/c the diagonals bisect each other.
500

In rhombus ABCD, the diagonals are drawn and intersect at E. If AC = 20, and BD = 48, what is the measure of AB?

Use the fact that the diagonals bisect each other and are perpendicular. Each right triangle has legs of 10 and 24. Use the pythagorean theorem to figure out that AB = 26.
