Find the absolute value of the complex number 2 + 3i.</b></div><div><br /></div><div>Solution:</div><div>The absolute value of a complex number is the distance between the origin and the point representing the complex number on the complex plane. We can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the distance:</div><div>|2 + 3i| = sqrt(2^2 + 3^2) = sqrt(13)</div><div>Therefore, the absolute value of the complex number 2 + 3i is sqrt(13).</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>2. Find the square of the complex number 1 + i.</b></div><div><br /></div><div>Solution:</div><div>To square a complex number, we can use the formula:</div><div>(a + bi)^2 = a^2 + 2abi - b^2</div><div>where a and b are the real and imaginary parts of the complex number.</div><div>In this case, a = 1 and b = 1, so we have:</div><div>(1 + i)^2 = 1^2 + 2(1)(i) - 1^2 = 2i</div><div><br /></div><div>Therefore, the square of the complex number 1 + i is 2i.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>3. Find all complex solutions to the equation z^3 = 1.</b></div><div><br /></div><div>Solution:</div><div>To solve this equation, we can write 1 as a complex number using polar coordinates:</div><div>1 = 1(cos(0) + i sin(0))</div><div>where 0 is any multiple of 2π.</div><div>Then, the cube roots of 1 are given by:</div><div>z = 1^(1/3) = cos(0/3) + i sin(0/3)</div><div>z = 1^(1/3) = cos(2π/3) + i sin(2π/3)</div><div>z = 1^(1/3) = cos(4π/3) + i sin(4π/3)</div><div><br /></div><div>Therefore, the three complex solutions to the equation z^3 = 1 are:</div><div>z = 1, z = -1/2 + i sqrt(3)/2, and z = -1/2 - i sqrt(3)/2.</div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>4.

Find all complex numbers z such that |z - 3 - 4i| = 5.</b></div><div><br /></div><div>Solution:</div><div>The equation |z - 3 - 4i| = 5 represents the set of complex numbers that are a distance of 5 units from the point (3,4) in the complex plane. Geometrically, this represents a circle with radius 5 centered at (3,4).</div><div>To find all complex numbers z that satisfy this equation, we can write z = x + yi and substitute into the equation, then use the distance formula for two points to obtain:</div><div><br /></div><div>sqrt((x-3)^2 + (y-4)^2) = 5</div><div><br /></div><div>Squaring both sides gives:</div><div><br /></div><div>(x-3)^2 + (y-4)^2 = 25</div><div><br /></div><div>Expanding and simplifying:</div><div><br /></div><div>x^2 - 6x + y^2 - 8y + 24 = 0</div><div><br /></div><div>Completing the square for both x and y:</div><div><br /></div><div>(x - 3)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 1</div><div><br /></div><div>This is the equation of a circle with radius 1 centered at (3,4).

Which of the following is a postulate of Euclidean geometry?</p><p>a) Two parallel lines intersect.</p><p>b) Two points determine a unique line.</p><p>c) The shortest distance between two points is a curved line.</p><p>d) The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is greater than 180 degrees.</p><p>Answer: b) Two points determine a unique line.</p><p><br /></p><p>2. A sphere has a diameter of 10 cm. What is its surface area?</p><p>a) 50π cm^2</p><p>b) 100π cm^2</p><p>c) 200π cm^2</p><p>d) 400π cm^2</p><p>Answer: b) 100π cm^2</p><p><br /></p><p>3. In triangle ABC, angle A = 60 degrees and angle B = 80 degrees. What is the measure of angle C?</p><p>a) 40 degrees</p><p>b) 60 degrees</p><p>c) 80 degrees</p><p>d) 100 degrees</p><p>Answer: d) 100 degrees. (The sum of the angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, so angle C = 180 - 60 - 80 = 40 degrees.)</p><p><br /></p><p>4. Which of the following is true about a line and a plane in three-dimensional space?</p><p>a) A line can intersect a plane at more than one point.</p><p>b) A line can be parallel to a plane.</p><p>c) A line can be perpendicular to a plane.</p><p>d) All of the above.</p><p>Answer: d) All of the above.</p><p><br /></p><p>5. A triangle has side lengths 3 cm, 4 cm, and 5 cm. Which of the following statements is true?</p><p>a) The triangle is acute.</p><p>b) The triangle is right.</p><p>c) The triangle is obtuse.</p><p>d) There is not enough information to determine the type of triangle.</p><p>Answer: b) The triangle is right. (This is a Pythagorean triple, which means the triangle is a right triangle.)</p><p><br /></p><p>6. In triangle ABC, the bisectors of angles A and B intersect at point O. If the measure of angle C is 120 degrees, what is the measure of angle O?</p><p>a) 60 degrees</p><p>b) 90 degrees</p><p>c) 120 degrees</p><p>d) 150 degrees</p><p>Answer: a) 60 degrees. (By the angle bisector theorem, the lengths of the segments formed by the bisectors of angles A and B are proportional to the lengths of the sides opposite those angles. Therefore, the measure of angle O is 1/2 the measure of angle C, or 60 degrees.)</p><p><br /></p><p>7. A cone has a height of 10 cm and a radius of 6 cm. What is the slant height of the cone?</p><p>a) 6 cm</p><p>b) 8 cm</p><p>c) 10 cm</p><p>d) 12 cm</p><p>Answer: d) 12 cm. (By the Pythagorean theorem, the slant height of a cone is given by √(r^2 + h^2), so in this case it is √(6^2 + 10^2) = √136 = 12 cm.)</p><p><br /></p><p>8. In a rectangular prism with dimensions 6 cm × 8 cm × 10 cm, what is the length of the diagonal?</p><p>a) 10 cm</p><p>b) 12 cm</p><p>c) 14 cm</p><p>d) 16 cm</p><p>Answer: d) 16 cm. (By the Pythagorean theorem, the length of the diagonal of a rectangular prism is given by √(l^2 + w^2 + h^2), so in this case it is √(6^2 + 8^2 + 10^2) = √260 = 16 cm.)</p><p><br /></p><p>9. A regular hexagon has a side length of 5 cm. What is its area?</p><p>a) 43.3 cm^2</p><p>b) 64.95 cm^2</p><p>c) 75.0 cm^2</p><p>d) 129.9 cm^2</p><p>Answer: b) 64.95 cm^2. (The formula for the area of a regular polygon is A = (1/2)ns^2 sin(360/n), where n is the number of sides and s is the side length. In this case, n = 6 and s = 5, so A = (1/2)6(5)^2 sin(360/6) = 64.95 cm^2.)</p><p><br /></p><p>10. In a circle with center O and radius 6 cm, chord AB has length 8 cm. What is the distance between O and AB?</p><p>a) 2 cm</p><p>b) 3 cm</p><p>c) 4 cm</p><p>d) 5 cm</p><p>Answer: b) 3 cm. (The distance between the center of a circle and a chord is given by (2rh)/(2r), where r is the radius of the circle and h is the distance from the center to the chord. In this case, r = 6 and AB is not a diameter, so h = √(r^2 - (AB/2)^2) = √(6^2 - 4^2) = √20. Therefore, the distance between O and AB is (2rh)/(2r) = h = √20 = 2√5 = approximately 3 cm.)</p><div><br /></div>

A survey of 500 students found that 200 of them preferred math over science. What is the probability of randomly selecting a student who prefers math?</div><div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Solution: The probability of selecting a student who prefers math is the number of students who prefer math divided by the total number of students: 200/500 = 0.4 or 40%.</li></ul></div><div><br /></div><div>5.

An open box is to be made from a rectangular piece of cardboard measuring 24 cm by 36 cm by cutting out squares of equal area from each corner and folding up the sides. What size of square should be cut out to make the box have maximum volume?</div><div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Solution: Let x be the length of each side of the square that is cut out. Then the dimensions of the box will be (36-2x) x (24-2x) x x. The volume of the box is given by V(x) = x(36-2x)(24-2x). To find the maximum volume, we take the derivative of V(x) with respect to x, set it equal to zero, and solve for x. After some algebraic manipulations, we get x = 3 cm. So the size of the square that should be cut out to maximize the volume of the box is 3 cm.</li></ul></div><div><br /></div><div>7. If sin x = 0.6, what is the value of cos x?</div><div><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>Solution: To find cos x, we use the Pythagorean identity: cos^2 x + sin^2 x = 1. Substituting sin x = 0.6 gives: cos^2 x + (0.6)^2 = 1. Solving for cos x gives cos x = ±0.8. Since x is in the first or second quadrant (where cosine is positive), we take the positive value: cos x = 0.8.</li></ul></div></div><p></p>

<b><b>12 Tips for Solving Math Problems</b></b></div>
<b>
</b>
<div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The key to solving math word problems is to have a plan or strategy, which works in any math word problem solving situation. For children having problems with math word problems, the following 12 tips are provided for helping children become good problem solvers.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. Read the problem carefully looking for clues and important information. Write down the clues, underline, or highlight the clues.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2. If necessary, rewrite the problem to help find these clues.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
3. Look for clues to determine which math operation is needed to solve the problem, for example addition, subtraction, etc. Look for key words like sum, difference, product, perimeter, area, etc. They lead to the operation needed to solve the problem.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
4. Look for what is needed solve the problem, for example: how many will are left, the total will be, everyone gets red, everyone gets one of each, etc.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5. Use variable symbols, such as “X” for missing information.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
6. Eliminate all non-essential information by drawing a line through distracting information.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
7. Draw sketches, drawings, and models to see the problem.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
8. Is the word problem similar to a previous work, if so how was it solved.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
9. Develop a plan based on the information determined to be important for solving the problem.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
10. Carry out the plan using the math operations which were determined would find the answer.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
11. Does the answer seem reasonable, if it does then it is probably ok – if not then check the work.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
12. Work the problem in reverse or backwards, starting with the answer to see if you wind up with your original problem.</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Additional words:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Here is another extra bit of information, which is a common mistake made when working with word problems. Forgetting to use the correct units of measure throughout the problem often results in the wrong answer. Units of measure can be mixed in the same word problem and not use the appropriate units leads to errors. These must be used properly to keep the answer correct.</div>

<br />
<b>Clue Words:</b><br />
<br />
When deciding on methods or procedures to use to solve problems, the first thing you should do is look for clues, which is one of the most important skills in solving problems in mathematics. If you begin to solve problems by looking for clue words, you will find that these 'words' often indicate an operation.<br />

For instance:<br />
<br />
<b>Clue Words for Addition</b><br />
- sum<br />
- total<br />
- in all<br />
- perimeter<br />
<br />
<b>Clue Words for Subtraction</b><br />
- difference<br />
- how much more<br />
- exceed<br />
<br />
<b>Clue Words for Multiplication</b><br />
- product<br />
- total<br />
- area<br />
- times<br />
<br />
<b>Clue Words for Division</b><br />
- share<br />
- distribute<br />
- quotient<br />
