Ch.6 Practice Quiz Study Guide (Part 1)

In this practice quiz, we will cover various topics related to triangles and theorems. Let's get started!

Question 1: Finding CD

Given the information:
C = 8x-2, D = 2x+10, and BC = 22
We can find the value of CD by substituting the given values into the formula. After calculation, we get CD = 144.

Question 2: Finding CD (Another Approach)

Another way to find the value of CD is by utilizing the information provided in the diagram. By solving the equation 2x+4 = 3x-8, we can establish that CD = 28.

Question 3: Finding LP and BL

In triangle ALMN, with point P as the centroid and BP = 13, we are asked to find the measures of LP and BL. By using the Centroid Theorem, we can determine that LP = 2/3 BL.

Question 4: Identifying Possible Lengths of NG

Next, in triangle AABC, with N as the incenter and given NF = 6x+10 and ND = 7x-7, we need to identify possible lengths of NG using the Angle Bisector Theorem. Through calculation, we find that NG = 112.

Question 5: Calculating the Value of x

The support GH in a truss is the midsegment of triangle OABC. By applying the midpoint formula and solving further, we can find that GH = 8.

Question 6: Determining the Required Fencing

If you divide a large triangular garden into four smaller gardens using fencing, how many fences do you need? This question prompts us to consider the triangle congruence theorem and the triangle inequality theorem to find the answer.

Question 7: Listing Sides of a Triangle

List the sides of triangle AABC from shortest to longest, considering the given angle measures and side lengths.

Question 8: Identifying Possible Side Lengths

Given two side lengths of a triangle, we are asked to identify the possible lengths for the third side using the triangle inequality theorem.

Question 9: Writing an Equation for Perpendicular Bisector

This question requires us to write an equation for the perpendicular bisector of a segment with given endpoints.

Question 10: Determining the Farther Deer

In a given scenario, we need to determine which deer is farther from the salt lick, considering their distances and directions.

Question 11: Analyzing a Diagram

By analyzing the diagram, we are asked to determine if a point lies on the perpendicular bisector of a line segment and to apply the Converse of the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem to support our answer.

Question 12: Identifying the Longer Walk

Finally, we need to determine which fire hydrant a firefighter would have to walk farther to and justify our answer using the appropriate theorem.

By practicing these questions, you can develop a better understanding of triangle congruence theorems, triangle side length theorems, and various other geometric concepts. Good luck with your practice!
