This short check helps your tutor see where to start. Work each problem on
your own, without a calculator unless a problem says otherwise. If you are
not sure, give your best try — every answer helps your tutor plan your
first few sessions.

Concepts

A triangle has vertices P(1, 1), Q(5, 1), and R(3, 4). What type
is side PQ (from P to Q)?

Horizontal, because P and Q have the same y-coordinate (both 1)

Vertical, because P and Q have the same y-coordinate (both 1)

Slanted, because the x-coordinates are different

Horizontal, because P and Q have the same x-coordinate
