1

If a = c = 2, b = d = 1, and the blue angle = 53°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

66% Answer Correctly
48
9
72
2

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 2 x 1
a = 2


2

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

68% Answer Correctly

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

h2 x l2 x w2

h x l x w

lw x wh + lh


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.


3

If side a = 4, side b = 2, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

64% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{65} \)
\( \sqrt{72} \)
\( \sqrt{20} \)
\( \sqrt{80} \)

Solution

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 42 + 22
c2 = 16 + 4
c2 = 20
c = \( \sqrt{20} \)


4

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 8, length (l) = 6, and width (w) = 9. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
180
80
348
46

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 6 x 9) + (2 x 9 x 8) + (2 x 6 x 8)
sa = (108) + (144) + (96)
sa = 348


5

If a = 7, b = 9, c = 6, and d = 2, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
24
26
27
23

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 7 + 9 + 6 + 2
p = 24
