Unit 5 Test Study Guide

Front

What is the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle?

Back

The perimeter (P) of a rectangle is calculated using the formula: P = 2(length + width).

Front

How do you find the midpoint of a line segment?

Back

The midpoint (M) of a line segment with endpoints (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by: M = ((x1 + x2)/2, (y1 + y2)/2).

Front

What is the formula for calculating the slope of a line?

Back

The slope (m) of a line passing through two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is calculated as: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Front

What is the distance formula between two points in a coordinate plane?

Back

Front

What is the area of a triangle?

Back

The area (A) of a triangle can be calculated using the formula: A = (1/2) * base * height.

Front

What is the definition of a rectangle?

Back

A rectangle is a quadrilateral with four right angles and opposite sides that are equal in length.

Front

What is the definition of a midpoint?

Back

The midpoint is the point that divides a line segment into two equal parts.

Front

What does slope represent in a graph?

Back

Slope represents the rate of change of y with respect to x; it indicates the steepness and direction of a line.

Front

What is the significance of the coordinates in a Cartesian plane?

Back

Coordinates (x, y) represent the position of a point in a two-dimensional space, where x is the horizontal position and y is the vertical position.

Front

How do you calculate the area of a rectangle?

Back

The area (A) of a rectangle is calculated using the formula: A = length * width.
