    Show answer

    Add all three side lengths together.

  2. What is the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle with width w and length l?

    Show answer

    Perimeter = 2w + 2l (or 2(w + l)).

  3. In a parallelogram, what is the relationship between opposite sides?

    Show answer

    Opposite sides are equal in length.

  4. What is the defining property of an isosceles triangle?

    Show answer

  5. If three child tickets cost £x each and five adult tickets cost £9 each, totaling £63, what equation represents this?

    Show answer

    3x + 5(9) = 63 or 3x + 45 = 63.

  6. If Sarah is x years old, Thomas is 3 years older, and David is twice as old as Sarah, what is the total of their ages in terms of x?

    Show answer

    x + (x + 3) + 2x = 4x + 3.

  7. If James has x pence, Hannah has 5 pence more, and Liam has 2 pence less, what is their total in terms of x?

    Show answer

    x + (x + 5) + (x - 2) = 3x + 3 pence.

  8. What equation represents the mean of three values a, b, and c equaling 16?

    Show answer

    (a + b + c) / 3 = 16, or equivalently a + b + c = 48.

  9. If a sandwich costs 75p more than a drink that costs £x, how much does a sandwich cost?

    Show answer
