On this circle, a line segment connecting point A to point D is called:
diameter |
|
circumference |
|
chord |
|
radius |
A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).
If side a = 3, side b = 1, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?
| \( \sqrt{85} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{10} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{2} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{80} \) |
According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:
c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 32 + 12
c2 = 9 + 1
c2 = 10
c = \( \sqrt{10} \)
If side x = 11cm, side y = 11cm, and side z = 8cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?
| 29cm | |
| 30cm | |
| 36cm | |
| 28cm |
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:
p = x + y + z
p = 11cm + 11cm + 8cm = 30cm
If angle a = 27° and angle b = 65° what is the length of angle d?
| 153° | |
| 117° | |
| 160° | |
| 147° |
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° - 27° - 65° = 88°
So, d° = 65° + 88° = 153°
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° - 27° = 153°
