Front

What is the definition of angle addition?

Back

Angle addition is the principle that states if two angles are adjacent, their measures can be added together to find the measure of the larger angle.

Front

What is slope-intercept form of a linear equation?

Back

The slope-intercept form is given by the equation y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Front

What are alternate exterior angles?

Back

Alternate exterior angles are pairs of angles that lie outside two parallel lines and on opposite sides of a transversal.

Front

How do you determine the number of solutions for the equation 2x + 2x + 2 = 4x + 2?

Back

Combine like terms to simplify the equation. In this case, it simplifies to 2 = 2, which indicates infinite solutions.

Front

What type of association does a graph with a positive slope indicate?

Back

A positive slope indicates a positive association, meaning as one variable increases, the other variable also increases.

Front

What is the formula for finding the slope between two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)?

Back

The slope (m) is calculated using the formula m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1).

Front

What is the definition of a transversal in geometry?

Back

A transversal is a line that intersects two or more lines at different points.

Front

What is the relationship between complementary angles?

Back

Complementary angles are two angles whose measures add up to 90 degrees.

Front

What is the definition of a linear equation?

Back

A linear equation is an equation that represents a straight line when graphed, typically in the form y = mx + b.

Front

What does it mean for two lines to be parallel?

Back

Two lines are parallel if they are in the same plane and do not intersect, having the same slope.
