Worked practice questions

The distance between the points $(6,-4)$ and $(3,0)$ is:

  1. $\sqrt{41}$
  2. $\sqrt7$
  3. 7
  4. 5
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. 5

Distance = √[(6−3)²+(−4−0)²] = √(9+16) = √25 = 5.

The acute angle between two lines with slopes $1$ and $0$ is:

  1. $30^\circ$
  2. $60^\circ$
  3. $45^\circ$
  4. $90^\circ$
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. $45^\circ$

tanθ = |(1−0)/(1+1·0)| = 1, so θ = 45°.

The equation of the line with slope $2$ passing through $(1,3)$ is:

  1. $2x - y + 1 = 0$
  2. $x - 2y + 5 = 0$
  3. $2x - y - 1 = 0$
  4. $2x + y - 5 = 0$
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. $2x - y + 1 = 0$

We have y − 3 = 2(x − 1) ⟹ y. That is y − 3 = 2x + 1 ⟹ 2x − y + 1. So y − 3 = 0.
