then
27
What does the mnemonic "Fewer Fators, More Multiples" mean?
Factors are the smaller side
Multiples are the larger (infinite) side
28

then is N a divisor of x + y?
Yes!
35 + 21 = 56
5\*7 + 3\*7 = 8\*7

...? |
\_\_\_\_\_\_\_
32

Even
33

Add.
34
Principle of Combinatronics

Works for % problem too.
36

Sum / # of Terms
S/N
37
Formula for Counting Multiples
(Last - First)/Increment + 1
38
Define the properties of EVENLY spaced sets
1. arithmetic mean = median
2. mean = median = (first + last)/2
39

No | x, 2, 5, 11, 12, 12, 33
43
When to work backwards?
2 conditions
1. When answer choices are "nice" numbers
2. When question ask for a nice discree number
44
Rate x Time = what?
Distance
Work
45
What are the 3 possible scenarios of relative rate?
1. bodies move towards each other
2. bodies move away from each other
3. bodies move in the same direciton on the same path
46
If an obj moves the same dist. twice, but at diff rate, then the average rate...
will NEVER by the "avg" of the two rates
actual average will lean closer to the slwoer rate as object spends more time on the slower rate.
47
Average Speed = ?

add
subtract
49

True
50
Any time when two triangles each have a right angle and also share an additional right angle are similar. T/F?
TRUE
51
Rhombus. Define.
Parallelogram
+
Opposite equal acute angles
+
Opposite equal obtuse angles
52

(n-2)\*180
53
What's the trap in this question?
How man books, each with a volume of 100 cubic in, can be packed into a crate witha volume of 5000 cubic in?
it is tempting to do 5000/100 books
WRONG
because you don't know the dimension of each book.
54
What are the two basic properties of a triangle?
1. sum of angle = 180
2. size of angle correspond to size of opposite side. If two angles are equale, then their opposite sides are also equal.
55
Triangle Inequality Law. Define.
Given two lengths of a triangle.
Length of a third side must lie between the difference & the sum of the two given sides.
56
Common right triangle dimension triplets & their multiples
3 - 4 -5 | 6 - 8 - 10
| 9 - 12- 15
| 12 - 16 - 20
5 - 12 - 13 | 10 - 24- 26
8 - 15 - 17 | NONE
57
The ratio of the sides in an isoscleles right triangle?
short: short:long = x : x : x\*sqrt(2)
long: short:short = x : x/sqrt(2) : x/sqrt(2)
58
What is the rartion of the sides in a 30-60-90 triangle?
Define its relation with an equilateral triangle.
short : mid : long = x : 2x : x\*sqrt(3)
you can cut an equilateral triangle in half and employ the property above to label the triangle.
59
What are the 3 ways to identify similar triangle?
AA / AAA
SSS
SAS
60
What is the relationship between inscribed angle & central angle of a circle if they both intercept the same arc?
angle(inscribed) = 0.5\*angle(central)
