What is the circumference of a circle with a radius of 5?

71% Answer Correctly
10π
26π
17π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π. Circle diameter is 2 x radius:

c = πd
c = π(2 * r)
c = π(2 * 5)
c = 10π


2

If a = c = 9, b = d = 8, what is the area of this rectangle?

80% Answer Correctly
72
24
45
18

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 9 x 8
a = 72


3

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -5) and (2, -1). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
-1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
2
1
1\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -5) and (2, -1) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(-1.0) - (-5.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{4}{4} \)
m = 1


4

For this diagram, the Pythagorean theorem states that b2 = ?

47% Answer Correctly

c2 - a2

a2 - c2

c - a

c2 + a2


Solution

The Pythagorean theorem defines the relationship between the side lengths of a right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse squared (c2) is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared (a2 + b2): c2 = a2 + b2 or, solved for c, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)


5

If the base of this triangle is 6 and the height is 4, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
32\(\frac{1}{2}\)
112\(\frac{1}{2}\)
12
77

Solution

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

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 6 x 4 = \( \frac{24}{2} \) = 12
