1

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 9, length (l) = 3, and width (w) = 6. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
378
172
198
48

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 3 x 6) + (2 x 6 x 9) + (2 x 3 x 9)
sa = (36) + (108) + (54)
sa = 198


2

What is 7a - 2a?

79% Answer Correctly
a2
9a2
14a2
5a

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.

7a - 2a = 5a


3

If a = c = 6, b = d = 8, what is the area of this rectangle?

79% Answer Correctly
48
8
18
12

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 6 x 8
a = 48


4

If a = 9, b = 4, c = 4, and d = 5, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
14
15
22
17

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 9 + 4 + 4 + 5
p = 22


5

If angle a = 61° and angle b = 47° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
145°
147°
119°
118°

Solution

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite:

d° = b° + c°

To find angle c, remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:

180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 61° - 47° = 72°

So, d° = 47° + 72° = 119°

A shortcut to get this answer is to remember that angles around a line add up to 180°:

a° + d° = 180°
d° = 180° - a°
d° = 180° - 61° = 119°
