1. Why is geometry more challenging for AI chatbots than algebra?

   1. Geometry requires spatial reasoning and visual representation that chatbots process primarily through text
   2. Geometry proofs contain more vocabulary words than algebraic equations
   3. AI has never been trained on geometric shapes
   4. Algebra uses more complex symbols that AI cannot interpret correctly

2. What is the primary benefit of using GeoGebra alongside ChatGPT when learning geometry?

   1. GeoGebra can grade your written proofs automatically
   2. GeoGebra provides visual representation while ChatGPT provides step-by-step explanations
   3. ChatGPT creates better drawings than GeoGebra's drawing tools
   4. GeoGebra solves problems faster than ChatGPT can type answers

3. In a two-column proof, what do the two columns typically contain?

   1. Steps of reasoning paired with justifications for each step
   2. Questions in one column and answers in the other
   3. Diagrams in one column and text explanations in the other
   4. Multiple choice options and their correct answers

4. Why is it important to draw your own diagram before asking AI for geometry help?

   1. Drawing first makes the AI respond faster to your questions
   2. Your diagram must be perfectly accurate or AI will give wrong answers
   3. AI cannot help unless you first prove you did the work yourself
   4. Without a visual sketch, AI may confuse which sides are opposite or adjacent to each other

5. What does it mean to prove something by contradiction?

   1. State your conclusion first, then find evidence to support it
   2. Show that a statement is true by drawing every possible example
   3. Prove that two different methods give the same answer
   4. Assume the opposite of what you want to prove, then show this assumption leads to an impossibility

6. Which tool is described in the lesson as the 'gold standard' for interactive geometry?

   1. GeoGebra
   2. Mathway
   3. Photomath
   4. Desmos Geometry

7. Which behavior represents an 'honest move' when using AI to help with geometry homework?

   1. Asking AI for the answer before trying to solve the problem yourself
   2. Using GeoGebra to find the answer and submitting the diagram without writing a proof
   3. Using ChatGPT to explain the next step in your proof after you've attempted it yourself
   4. Pasting the entire proof problem into ChatGPT and copying its complete solution

8. When you drag points around in GeoGebra, what property should remain constant for the construction to be valid?

   1. The names you gave to each point
   2. The exact pixel positions of all points
   3. The color of the lines connecting points
   4. The geometric relationships and properties defined by your construction

9. Why might a visual learner excel particularly in geometry?

   1. Geometry requires less reading than other math subjects
   2. Visual learners have better memories for remembering proof steps
   3. Geometry is inherently visual, and tools like GeoGebra let learners manipulate shapes directly
   4. AI works better for visual learners than for others

10. What is the meaning of congruence in geometry?

    1. A shape can be divided into two identical halves
    2. Two figures have the same size and shape and can be mapped onto each other exactly
    3. Two angles add up to 90 degrees
    4. Two lines are parallel and never meet

11. In the visual workflow for geometry proofs, what is the recommended second step after reading the problem?

    1. Memorize the theorem that applies
    2. Write down all the given information
    3. Ask ChatGPT to explain the proof
    4. Open GeoGebra and actually draw the figure

12. What type of problems does the lesson say AI is 'pretty good at' now?

    1. Word problems that require reading long paragraphs
    2. Two-column proofs that require pattern-matching steps
    3. Creating original geometry artwork
    4. Graphing calculator problems

13. What does the phrase 'There is no royal road to geometry' mean in the context of this lesson?

    1. You cannot shortcut learning geometry—you must practice drawing and proving things yourself
    2. Every geometry problem has a single correct answer
    3. The road to learning geometry is easy if you use the right tools
    4. Geometry is only for royalty and wealthy students

14. Which combination of tools represents the lesson's main recommendation for studying geometry?

    1. A graphing calculator paired with a math textbook
    2. A video streaming service paired with a spreadsheet program
    3. A music player paired with a word processor
    4. A visual tool like GeoGebra paired with an AI chat like ChatGPT

15. Why should you read geometry proofs out loud while looking at the diagram?

    1. It helps connect the verbal logic to the visual representation in your brain
    2. It prevents you from getting distracted
    3. It is required by most geometry classrooms
    4. It makes GeoGebra work faster
