1

If the base of this triangle is 3 and the height is 4, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
6
54
24
27\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

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

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 3 x 4 = \( \frac{12}{2} \) = 6


2

On this circle, line segment CD is the:

46% Answer Correctly

diameter

chord

circumference

radius


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).


3

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 1 and radius (r) = 9. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
81π
576π
162π
36π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(92 x 1)
v = 81π


4

Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?

50% Answer Correctly

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral

the area of a parallelogram is base x height


Solution

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).

Solve for c:
-2c + 2 = \( \frac{c}{4} \)

46% Answer Correctly
-1\(\frac{17}{19}\)
-1\(\frac{15}{41}\)
\(\frac{8}{9}\)
2\(\frac{2}{17}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.

-2c + 2 = \( \frac{c}{4} \)
4 x (-2c + 2) = c
(4 x -2c) + (4 x 2) = c
-8c + 8 = c
-8c + 8 - c = 0
-8c - c = -8
-9c = -8
c = \( \frac{-8}{-9} \)
c = \(\frac{8}{9}\)
