1

If a = c = 7, b = d = 2, what is the area of this rectangle?

79% Answer Correctly
12
49
14
20

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 7 x 2
a = 14


2

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. Which of the following is not a part of the FOIL method?

83% Answer Correctly

Last

Inside

First

Odd


Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses.


3

If the area of this square is 1, what is the length of one of the diagonals?

68% Answer Correctly
7\( \sqrt{2} \)
\( \sqrt{2} \)
9\( \sqrt{2} \)
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 = \( \sqrt{a} \) = \( \sqrt{1} \) = 1

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 = 12 + 12
c2 = 2
c = \( \sqrt{2} \)

What is the area of a circle with a diameter of 8?

69% Answer Correctly
16π
9π
2π
4π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2. Radius is circle \( \frac{diameter}{2} \):

r = \( \frac{d}{2} \)
r = \( \frac{8}{2} \)
r = 4
a = πr2
a = π(42)
a = 16π


5

The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

24% Answer Correctly

c = π r2

c = π d

c = π d2

c = π r


Solution

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.
