The shaded region represents one-half the area of the circle. Find the length of the radius to determine this area. Notice that ...

E is the midpoint of AD, so AE is 4. Now that you have the lengths of both legs, you can plug into the formula: (AB)(AE) = (8)(4 ...

Because OA, OB, and OC are all radii of the same circle, triangle AOB and triangle BOC are both isosceles triangles, each theref ...

Angle AOC measures 80 + 60 = 140, choice (H). D This question tests your knowledge of two popular geometry concepts; make sure t ...

So the full equation for line l is y = −2x + 5. Plug in each answer choice to find the one that makes this equation true. Only ( ...

fraction of the large triangle’s area is shaded. All of the small triangles are congruent and have the same area. There are 10 u ...

First look at the point of intersection of those three diagonals. Angle a is opposite the 15 degree angle and angle b is opposit ...

D Area and circumference are easy to confuse, and x is the diameter (not the radius) of the original circle. Read carefully to a ...

EFG is a 5:12:13 Pythagorean triplet, doubled to 10:24:26. The more time-consuming alternative to simply recognizing Pythagorean ...

Since the line is four units to the left of the y-axis, it is at −4 on the x-axis. The equation of this line is x = −4, answer c ...

You could also solve by substitution. First, isolate one variable: Then, plug the x-value into the second equation and solve for ...

G Most coordinate geometry problems are easier to understand with a figure. If one is not provided, make your own. (This one is ...
