Explanation

You must add the start point to the length of the line to find the end point of the line.

3

How many lines of symmetry does a square have?

Explanation

A line of symmetry is the imaginary line that you draw through a shape so that you can fold the image over the line and have both halves match exactly. Any regular shape has as many lines of symmetry as it does sides. Since a square has four sides, the correct answer is 4!

5

On a line segment, there are two points. One is at and the other is at . What is the distance of the line segment?

Explanation

When dealing with a number line, the distance of a point is measured in its distance from .

is a total of points away from .

is more straight forward and is just points away.

To get the total distance you just add the two distances together

9

How many lines of symmetry does an octagon have?

Explanation

A line of symmetry divides a shape into two equal and identical halves. Any regular shape has as many lines of symmetry as it does sides. Since octagons have eight sides, the correct answer is 8.
