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

49% Answer Correctly

the area of a parallelogram is base x height

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


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).


2

If side x = 11cm, side y = 10cm, and side z = 5cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
32cm
26cm
25cm
34cm

Solution

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 11cm + 10cm + 5cm = 26cm


3

A cylinder with a radius (r) and a height (h) has a surface area of:

52% Answer Correctly

π r2h2

π r2h

4π r2

2(π r2) + 2π rh


Solution

A cylinder is a solid figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section with a radius (r) and a height (h). The volume of a cylinder is π r2h and the surface area is 2(π r2) + 2π rh.


4

A(n) __________ is to a parallelogram as a square is to a rectangle.

51% Answer Correctly

quadrilateral

triangle

rhombus

trapezoid


Solution

A rhombus is a parallelogram with four equal-length sides. A square is a rectangle with four equal-length sides.


5

Solve for c:
c - 6 < \( \frac{c}{4} \)

44% Answer Correctly
c < 8
c < 1\(\frac{7}{13}\)
c < -\(\frac{24}{43}\)
c < \(\frac{8}{33}\)

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 < sign and the answer on the other.

c - 6 < \( \frac{c}{4} \)
4 x (c - 6) < c
(4 x c) + (4 x -6) < c
4c - 24 < c
4c - 24 - c < 0
4c - c < 24
3c < 24
c < \( \frac{24}{3} \)
c < 8
