1

If the base of this triangle is 5 and the height is 8, what is the area?

59% Answer Correctly
39
21
22\(\frac{1}{2}\)
20
Solution

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

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 5 x 8 = \( \frac{40}{2} \) = 20

2

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 1, length (l) = 4, and width (w) = 1. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
14
188
32
18
Solution

The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):

sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 4 x 1) + (2 x 1 x 1) + (2 x 4 x 1)
sa = (8) + (2) + (8)
sa = 18

3

For this diagram, the Pythagorean theorem states that b2 = ?

47% Answer Correctly

a2 - c2

c - a

c2 + a2

c2 - a2

Solution

The Pythagorean theorem defines the relationship between the side lengths of a right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse squared (c2) is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared (a2 + b2): c2 = a2 + b2 or, solved for c, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)

4

3

5

2
Solution

A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of the lengths of its four sides.
