Sample text

Opposite points are at (-2, -2) and (2,2). ii What are we looking for? The area of that square. iii DRAW THE PICTURE. What are the two other points? iv How do we figure area of a square? Side × Side, Length × Width, Edge × Edge, however you’d like to say it. What’s the length of a side? Use points (-2,2) and (2,2). The x values are different, so subtract those for the length. 2 - (-2) = 4. That’s our side. Area = Side × Side Area = 4 × 4 Area = 16 C is the correct answer. Test 1 Section 8 Question 5 Logic problem with family members.

That’s the sum of all the exterior edges. But we already knew that. In this case the Perimeter is the sum of AX, XB, BC, CF and FA. P = AX + XB + BC + CF + FA iii Let’s start filling in the pieces. CF is an easy one. It’s the sum of CD, DE and EF. CD + DE + EF = CF 10 + 10 + 10 = CF 30 = CF That’s one piece of P. 4 more and we’re good. Back to the big equilateral triangles. Let’s look at ΔADF. We said before that since it’s an equilateral triangle, all the sides and angles are the same. Do we know the length of any of the sides of ΔADF or ΔBCE?

The number of terms, so 3 in this problem. x+y+z = 12 3 That doesn’t look like our answers. What about moving the 3? x + y + z × 3 = 12 × 3 3 x +y+z = 36 That’s Equation 1. This means (C) and (D) are out. iv Let’s find the next equation. Go to the next given. Use our condition (x < y < z) to help here. z = largest y = middle x = smallest T he greatest number subtracted from the sum of the other two numbers results in 4 (-) z = (+) x 4 That's the same as: The sum of the other two numbers minus the greatest number results in 4.
