1

The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 6, b = 2, c = 8, d = 6, and h = 4. What is the area?

51% Answer Correctly
12
22\(\frac{1}{2}\)
26
16

Solution

The area of a trapezoid is one-half the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides multiplied by the height:

a = ½(b + d)(h)
a = ½(2 + 6)(4)
a = ½(8)(4)
a = ½(32) = \( \frac{32}{2} \)
a = 16


2

What is 4a + 6a?

81% Answer Correctly
a2
10a
24a
-2a2

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.

4a + 6a = 10a


3

If a = 6, b = 8, c = 1, and d = 2, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
17
16
27
19

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 6 + 8 + 1 + 2
p = 17


4

Simplify 5a x 7b.

86% Answer Correctly
35\( \frac{b}{a} \)
35\( \frac{a}{b} \)
35ab
35a2b2

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

5a x 7b = (5 x 7) (a x b) = 35ab


5

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 1 and radius (r) = 7. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
234π
80π
120π
112π

Solution

The surface area of a cylinder is 2πr2 + 2πrh:

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(72) + 2π(7 x 1)
sa = 2π(49) + 2π(7)
sa = (2 x 49)π + (2 x 7)π
sa = 98π + 14π
sa = 112π
