Which of the following is not true about both rectangles and squares?

63% Answer Correctly

all interior angles are right angles

the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all four sides

the lengths of all sides are equal

the area is length x width


Solution

A rectangle is a parallelogram containing four right angles. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) are equal and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d) or, comonly, 2 x length x width. The area of a rectangle is length x width. A square is a rectangle with four equal length sides. The perimeter of a square is 4 x length of one side (4s) and the area is the length of one side squared (s2).

Simplify 4a x 7b.

86% Answer Correctly
28ab
28\( \frac{a}{b} \)
28\( \frac{b}{a} \)
11ab

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

4a x 7b = (4 x 7) (a x b) = 28ab


3

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 8 and radius (r) = 1. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
18π
210π
108π
40π

Solution

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

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(12) + 2π(1 x 8)
sa = 2π(1) + 2π(8)
sa = (2 x 1)π + (2 x 8)π
sa = 2π + 16π
sa = 18π


4

If a = c = 4, b = d = 9, and the blue angle = 57°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

65% Answer Correctly
28
36
25
15

Solution

The area of a parallelogram is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 4 x 9
a = 36


5

What is 8a6 + 5a6?

75% Answer Correctly
13a6
13a12
13
40a12

Solution

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

8a6 + 5a6 = 13a6
