1

The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

24% Answer Correctly

c = π d2

c = π r

c = π d

c = π r2


Solution

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.


2

If the base of this triangle is 9 and the height is 9, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
65
60
24
40\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 9 x 9 = \( \frac{81}{2} \) = 40\(\frac{1}{2}\)


3

Which types of triangles will always have at least two sides of equal length?

54% Answer Correctly

equilateral and right

equilateral and isosceles

isosceles and right

equilateral, isosceles and right


Solution

An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length. An equilateral triangle has three sides of equal length. In a right triangle, two sides meet at a right angle.


4

What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 18?

71% Answer Correctly
18π
14π
36π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 18π


5

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 7, length (l) = 6, and width (w) = 3. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
214
162
350
166

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 3) + (2 x 3 x 7) + (2 x 6 x 7)
sa = (36) + (42) + (84)
sa = 162
