1

If the base of this triangle is 9 and the height is 6, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
70
112\(\frac{1}{2}\)
84
27

Solution

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

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 9 x 6 = \( \frac{54}{2} \) = 27


2

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

24% Answer Correctly

c = π r2

c = π d2

c = π r

c = π d


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.


3

Simplify 6a x 8b.

85% Answer Correctly
14ab
48ab
48\( \frac{b}{a} \)
48\( \frac{a}{b} \)

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.

6a x 8b = (6 x 8) (a x b) = 48ab


4

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 5 and radius (r) = 4. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
234π
208π
80π
72π

Solution

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

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(42) + 2π(4 x 5)
sa = 2π(16) + 2π(20)
sa = (2 x 16)π + (2 x 20)π
sa = 32π + 40π
sa = 72π


5

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

60% Answer Correctly

supplementary, vertical

vertical, supplementary

obtuse, acute

acute, obtuse


Solution

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).
