1

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 6, length (l) = 8, and width (w) = 4. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
288
360
32
192

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 6 x 8 x 4
v = 192


2

What is the circumference of a circle with a radius of 7?

71% Answer Correctly
14π
10π
36π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π. Circle diameter is 2 x radius:

c = πd
c = π(2 * r)
c = π(2 * 7)
c = 14π


3

If the area of this square is 49, what is the length of one of the diagonals?

68% Answer Correctly
3\( \sqrt{2} \)
4\( \sqrt{2} \)
7\( \sqrt{2} \)
5\( \sqrt{2} \)

Solution

To find the diagonal we need to know the length of one of the square's sides. We know the area and the area of a square is the length of one side squared:

a = s2

so the length of one side of the square is:

s = \( \sqrt{a} \) = \( \sqrt{49} \) = 7

The Pythagorean theorem defines the square of the hypotenuse (diagonal) of a triangle with a right angle as the sum of the squares of the other two sides:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 72 + 72
c2 = 98
c = \( \sqrt{98} \) = \( \sqrt{49 x 2} \) = \( \sqrt{49} \) \( \sqrt{2} \)
c = 7\( \sqrt{2} \)


4

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

62% Answer Correctly
75π
175π
50π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(12 x 8)
v = 8π


5

What is 2a + 6a?

81% Answer Correctly
8a2
-4a2
12a
8a

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.

2a + 6a = 8a
