Sample Practice Test Questions

Math Knowledge

Which of the following statements about parallel lines with a transversal is not correct?

same-side interior angles are complementary and equal each other

Parallel lines are lines that share the same slope (steepness) and therefore never intersect. A transversal occurs when a set of parallel lines are crossed by another line. All of the angles formed by a transversal are called interior angles and angles in the same position on different parallel lines equal each other (a° = w°, b° = x°, c° = z°, d° = y°) and are called corresponding angles. Alternate interior angles are equal (a° = z°, b° = y°, c° = w°, d° = x°) and all acute angles (a° = c° = w° = z°) and all obtuse angles (b° = d° = x° = y°) equal each other. Same-side interior angles are supplementary and add up to 180° (e.g. a° + d° = 180°, d° + c° = 180°).

General Science

Which of the following is the primary difference between a comet and an asteroid?

comets have an atmosphere

A comet is a loose collection of ice, dust, and small rocky particles that, in contrast to an asteroid, has an extended atmosphere surrounding the center. When passing close to the Sun, this atmosphere warms and begins to release gases forming a visible coma or tail.

Math Knowledge
21

If the base of this triangle is 6 and the height is 7, what is the area?

21

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 6 x 7 = \( \frac{42}{2} \) = 21

Arithmetic Reasoning

The total water usage for a city is 50,000 gallons each day. Of that total, 32% is for personal use and 59% is for industrial use. How many more gallons of water each day is consumed for industrial use over personal use?

13,500

59% of the water consumption is industrial use and 32% is personal use so (59% - 32%) = 27% more water is used for industrial purposes. 50,000 gallons are consumed daily so industry consumes \( \frac{27}{100} \) x 50,000 gallons = 13,500 gallons.

Math Knowledge
72π

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 5 and radius (r) = 4. What is the surface area?

72π

The surface area of a cylinder is 2πr2 + 2πrh:

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(42) + 2π(4 x 5)
sa = 2π(16) + 2π(20)
sa = (2 x 16)π + (2 x 20)π
sa = 32π + 40π
sa = 72π

Electronics Information

The voltage output of a transformer primarily depends on which of the following?

the number of turns in the wire of the coils

A transformer utilizes an inductor to increase or decrease the voltage in a circuit. AC flowing in a coil wrapped around an iron core magnetizes the core causing it to produce a magnetic field. This magnetic field generates a voltage in a nearby coil of wire and, depending on the number of turns in the wire of the primary (source) and secondary coils and their proximity, voltage is induced in the secondary coil.

Electronics Information

Which of the following statements about electrical resistance is true?

the more resistive the conductor is the slower electron flow will be

Resistance is opposition to the flow of current. As resistance increases, current decreases as resistance and current are inversely proportional.

General Science

Earth's troposphere layer is which of the following?

closest to the surface

The Earth's atmosphere has several layers starting with the troposphere which is closest in proximity to the surface. Containing most of the Earth's breathable air (oxygen and nitrogen), it's a region with warmer temperatures closer to the surface and cooler temperatures farther away which results in the rising and falling air that generates weather.

Shop Information

The __________ is an initial shallow saw cut made as a guide to prevent the saw from slipping sideways on subsequent more powerful cuts.

kerf

When you start sawing by creating a kerf it will help prevent the saw from slipping sideways when you begin the power strokes that do most of the cutting.

Arithmetic Reasoning

What is the next number in this sequence: 1, 3, 7, 13, 21, __________ ?

31

The equation for this sequence is:

an = an-1 + 2(n - 1)

where n is the term's order in the sequence, an is the value of the term, and an-1 is the value of the term before an. This makes the next number:

a6 = a5 + 2(6 - 1)
a6 = 21 + 2(5)
a6 = 31
