1

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

84% Answer Correctly

quadratic

polynomial

monomial

binomial


Solution

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.


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

lw x wh + lh

h2 x l2 x w2

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

h x l x w


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

What is the area of a circle with a radius of 4?

70% Answer Correctly
16π
25π
49π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2:

a = πr2
a = π(42)
a = 16π


4

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

52% Answer Correctly

quadrilateral

rhombus

trapezoid

triangle


Solution

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


5

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

69% Answer Correctly
6\( \sqrt{2} \)
3\( \sqrt{2} \)
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\( \sqrt{2} \)
