If the dimensions of a rectangle are doubled, what happens to its area? - ✔It increases
by a factor of 4. The area of a rectangle is length times width, and when the sides are
doubled, it is (2l) times (2w). After multiplying those values together, the answer is 4 lw.
Any time all the dimensions are doubled in a shape, the area quadruples.
A quadrilateral with exactly one pair of opposite parallel sides that are not the same
length is a - ✔trapezoid
A triangle with 2 equal sides can best be described as - ✔isosceles
A triangle with all equal sides can best be described as - ✔equilateral
A triangle with no sides that are equal can best be described as - ✔scalene
Rectangles and rhombuses are both types of - ✔parallelograms
4 liters equals about - ✔1 gallon (1.05)
50 kilograms is equal to how many pounds? - ✔110
1 meter is how many inches? - ✔40
50 Celsius = ? Fahrenheit? - ✔80
surface area = - ✔Sum of the areas of each face of the solid. For a rectangular prism it
is SA = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh
Parallel lines always have the same slope because - ✔they remain the same distance
apart forever.
When items are chosen from a population in such a way that every item in that
population has an equal opportunity to be in the sample, this is what kind of sampling? -
✔Random. All items in the population have the same chance to be a part of the sample.
Describe a "histogram" - ✔They act as a type of sorting "bin." You have one variable,
and you sort data by this variable by placing them into bins. Then you count how many
pieces of data are in each bin. The ranges of numerical values have no overlap.
Describe what a supplementary angle is - ✔two angles are supplementary if the sum of
their measures is 180 degrees.
Describe a complementary angle - ✔Two angles are complementary if the sum of their
angles measures 90 degrees
