Chapter 14 Test (Day 111)

Today is approximately the end of the fifth quaver -- the midpoint of the third quarter -- so it's a good test day. This is what I wrote last year about today's test:

Today is the Chapter 14 Test. Here are the answers to my posted test:

1. DE = 32, EF = 16sqrt(3).

2. TU = 16, US = 8sqrt(3), SK = 8, TK = 8sqrt(2).

3. 3/4

4. 3/5

5. 0.309

6. 0.625

7. 1/2

8. sqrt(3) (Some people may consider this question unfair, since the above question and both corresponding questions on the practice had rational answers, leading students to believe that they can just use a calculator to find the exact value rather than use 30-60-90 triangles.)

9-10. These are vectors that I can't reproduce easily here.

11. BC/AC (or a/b, if the students learned it that way).

12. AB and AD

13. ACD and CBD

14. This is a vector that I can't reproduce easily here.

15. (9, 6)

16. 115 feet, to the nearest foot.

17. (1, 4)

18. (3, -3)

19. (3, 2). (I hope students don't get confused here and solve these three backwards!)

20. This is a vector that I can't reproduce easily here.

Thus concludes Chapter 14. Stay tuned -- we're jumping back to Chapter 8 on Area next week!
