Question 1 of 10
1. The equation 5y^2 - 3x^2 = 25 will yield what type of graph? (Note: ^ is used as "raised to the power of".) Hint


Question 2 of 10
2. 2x + 3y = 19 and 6x - 3y = 21. Find x and y. Hint


Question 3 of 10
3. In trigonometry, "sin x" is equal to which of the following? Hint


Question 4 of 10
4. Set R has 17 members. Set S has 10 members. Set R contains 4 of the same members as set S. How many members would be in the union of set R and set S? Hint


Question 5 of 10
5. In geometry, which of these is not a triangle congruency theorem? Note: A triangle congruency theorem is something that can be used to prove two triangles congruent. For example, Angle-Angle-Side is a triangle congruency theorem. This means that two angles in two triangles are congruent as well as a side. Angle-Angle-Side would be different from Angle-Side-Angle, however, because the side in the latter is in between the two congruent angles. (S is side and A is angle.) Hint


Question 6 of 10
6. Which of these is not a prime number (a number that is only divisible by one and itself)? Hint


Question 7 of 10
7. 5! equals what?

Answer: (One Number, do not use words)
Question 8 of 10
8. A parabola is the locus of all points equidistant from a point and a line. What is the term for that point, and what is the term for that line, respectively? Hint


Question 9 of 10
9. If a?b means a(a+b) and a#b means b(a-b), find 5?(8#3). Hint


Question 10 of 10
10. How many roots does the equation
"x^4 + 6x^3 - 8x^2 + 10x + 88 = 0" have?
Hint

Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. The equation 5y^2 - 3x^2 = 25 will yield what type of graph? (Note: ^ is used as "raised to the power of".)

Answer: Hyperbola

In a circle, the x and y coefficients must be equal and positive. In an ellipse, they have to be positive. In a parabola, only one of the terms would be squared.
2. 2x + 3y = 19 and 6x - 3y = 21. Find x and y.

Answer: (5,3)

Add the two equations together, and you get "8x = 40". Divide both sides by 8, and x = 5. Plug x back in to one of the equations and y will equal 3.
3. In trigonometry, "sin x" is equal to which of the following?

Answer: 1/csc x

Cos x equals 1/sec x, and tan x equals 1/cot x.
4. Set R has 17 members. Set S has 10 members. Set R contains 4 of the same members as set S. How many members would be in the union of set R and set S?

Answer: 23

You would not count twice those four members that are in both sets.
5. In geometry, which of these is not a triangle congruency theorem? Note: A triangle congruency theorem is something that can be used to prove two triangles congruent. For example, Angle-Angle-Side is a triangle congruency theorem. This means that two angles in two triangles are congruent as well as a side. Angle-Angle-Side would be different from Angle-Side-Angle, however, because the side in the latter is in between the two congruent angles. (S is side and A is angle.)

Answer: SSA

Side-Side-Side, Angle-Side-Angle, and Side-Angle-Side are all triangle congruency theorems.
6. Which of these is not a prime number (a number that is only divisible by one and itself)?

Answer: 111

111 is divisible by 3 and 37.
7. 5! equals what?

Answer: 120

The "!" means factorial. The natural number preceding that is multiplied by every natural number below it down to 1. 5*4*3*2*1 is 120.
8. A parabola is the locus of all points equidistant from a point and a line. What is the term for that point, and what is the term for that line, respectively?

Answer: Focus and Directrix

The vertex of the parabola is one-half the way in between the focus and the directrix.
9. If a?b means a(a+b) and a#b means b(a-b), find 5?(8#3).

Answer: 100

3(8-3) is 15, and then 5(5+15) equals 100.
10. How many roots does the equation
"x^4 + 6x^3 - 8x^2 + 10x + 88 = 0" have?


Answer: 4

An equation always has the same amount of roots as the highest power of the variable, however sometimes these solutions can be the same. Ex: (x - 1)(x - 1) = 0. x = 1 for each of these factors.
