Chapter 5 Test Review Solutions

1. Use the compass to make marks on each

side of the angle. Then place the point of the
compass on each mark and make an arc in
the interior of the angle such that the arcs
cross. Draw a ray through the intersection of
the arcs.
2. 5 x + 3 = 7 x 9
12 = 2 x
6=x

6. 3 x 4 = 2 ( 2 x 6 )
3 x 4 = 4 x 12

8. Since R is obtuse, it is the largest angle.

Because PR > QR, Q > P. So the angles
in order would be
P, Q, R
(Hint: The angle opposite a side is the letter
that is not in the sideex. Q is not in PR).
