2. Answer
• 40 + 110 = 150
• Sum of interior angles must equal 180 so the last angle equals 30.
• The 30 ° and angle 1 are supplementary so angle 1 = 150 °
3. State the theorem or postulate that shows the s to be congruent or state N
if the s aren’t congruent. Write a congruence statement if appropriate.
3. Answer
• by the Reflexive property so the two triangles can be proven congruent by the SSS Theorem

7. Which point of concurrency
completes the following sentence?
• The ______________of a triangle is equidistant from the vertices of the triangle.
8. Which point of concurrency completes the following sentence?
•The ____________of a
triangle is equidistant
from each side of the
triangle.
9. Complete the following sentence:
• The distance from a vertex of a
triangle to the centroid is ____
of the median’s entire length.
The length from the centroid to
the midpoint is ____ of the
length of the median.
11. A rectangle has side lengths of 12 and 20 inches. If the perimeter of a similar
rectangle is 192, find the length of its longest side.
11. Answer
• The perimeter of the original rectangle is found by 12 + 12 + 20 + 20 = 64
• Then you use 192/64 to find out the scale factor is 3.
• Apply this scale factor to 12 and 20 to get new side lengths of 36 and 60.
• 60 is the length of the longest side.
12. Answer
• Since PQ is 1/3 of PZ, you can multiply PQ times 3 and set them equal to each other.
• 3(x + 6) = 6x – 9
• 3x + 18 = 6x – 9
• 27 = 3x
• X = 9
13. Answer • Since a centroid is created by medians then PX
and PY are congruent. Set them equation to each other to solve.
• 4x + 7 = 6x – 3
• 7 = 2x – 3
• 10 = 2x
• X = 5
• Use the value of 5 in 4x + 7 to solve for PX
• 4(5) + 7 = 20 + 7 = 27
14. Answer
• Since CDO is created by the midpoints of MNO, each side is half the length of MNO.
• CD = 4 so MO = 8
• CE = 8 so NO = 16
• DE = 7 so MN = 14
15. Answer
• Since the line X is formed by the medians of the two sides, it is half the length of the side parallel to it.
• X = ½(34) = 17
16. The points A(2,4), B(6, -2) and C(-2, 0) create
a triangle. Find the equation of the line from C
to the median of AB.
16. Answer • First we must find the median (midpoint) of AB.
Do this using the midpoint formula: x = (2 + 6)/2 = 8/2 = 4
Y = (4 + -2)/2 = 2/2 = 1
So the coordinates for the median of AB is D(4,1).
• Use D(4,1) and C(-2, 0) to find the equation of the line DC.
• The slope is
• Use the slope and a point to find b.
1 = 1/6(4) + b
1 = 2/3 + b
1 – 2/3 = b
b = 1/3
1 0 1
4 2 6
1 1
6 3y x
17. The point of concurrency of a triangle that divides the medians
into a 2 to 1 ratio is called the: a) Centroid
b) Circumcenter c) Incenter d) Median
e) Orthocenter
20. Five interior angles of a hexagon have measures 100°, 110°,
120°, 130°, and 140°. What is the measure of the sixth
angle?
20. Answer
• The sum of the interior angles of a hexagon can be found by (n – 2) 180 with n being the number of sides.
• (6-2)180 = 4(180) = 720
• 100 + 110 + 120 + 130 + 140 = 600
• 720 – 600 = 120 so the 6th angle = 120°
21. Answer
• A quadrilateral has 4 sides so (4-2)180 = 2(180) = 360
• x + x + x + 60 = 360
• 3x + 60 = 360
• 3x = 300
• X = 100
22. Answer
• The sum of the exterior angles of any polygon is 360.
• m+2 + 3m + 2m + 100 = 360
• 6m + 102 = 360
• 6m = 258
• m = 43
