Multiple Choice Questions

Simplifying Radicals: Problems 1-4 test the ability to simplify square roots and express them in simplest radical form. Understanding the process of factoring and simplifying square roots is crucial.
Polygon Angles: Problems 5 and 6 cover the relationships between the number of sides of a polygon and the sum of its interior and exterior angles. The formulas (n-2) x 180° for the sum of interior angles and 360° for the sum of exterior angles are key.
Pythagorean Triples and Right Triangles: Problem 7 tests knowledge of Pythagorean triples (sets of three integers that satisfy the Pythagorean theorem). Problem 8 and 9 require solving for x, applying the Pythagorean theorem.
Lines and their Properties: Problems 10-15 focus on the properties of lines including slope, parallel lines (same slope), perpendicular lines (negative reciprocal slopes), and the equation of a line (y = mx + c). Understanding the relationship between slope and the x and y-axis is important.
Coordinate Geometry: Problems 16-17 cover finding midpoints and distances using the midpoint formula and distance formula respectively.
Similar Triangles: Problem 18 tests the understanding of similar triangles and the ratio of their sides, areas, and perimeters.
Problem Solving with Triangles: Problem 19 involves solving for x in a triangle, likely using properties of similar triangles or trigonometry.
Triangle Similarity Conditions: Problem 20 reviews conditions for triangle similarity, such as having two angles equal.

Long Answer Questions

Circle Geometry: Problem 21 involves finding the shortest distance from a chord to the center of a circle using properties of circles and right triangles. Problem 22 involves solving a problem about tangents to a circle using the Pythagorean theorem.
Radical Simplification: Problem 23 tests the ability to simplify radical expressions involving subtraction and potentially rationalization.
Regular Polygons: Problem 24 involves calculating the sum and measure of interior and exterior angles of a regular 12-sided polygon using the relevant formulas. Understanding properties of regular polygons is needed here.
Coordinate Geometry: Problem 25 requires finding the midpoint, slope, and equation of the perpendicular bisector of a line segment given the coordinates of its endpoints. Understanding midpoint, slope formulas and perpendicular slopes is important.
Similar Triangles and Proportion: Problem 26 utilizes similar triangles and proportion to solve for the height of a building given the lengths of shadows. Setting up a correct proportion is key.
