1

If a = c = 7, b = d = 4, what is the area of this rectangle?

79% Answer Correctly
27
4
28
54

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 7 x 4
a = 28


2

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

24% Answer Correctly

c = π d2

c = π r

c = π r2

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

What is the circumference of a circle with a radius of 1?

70% Answer Correctly
14π
6π
2π
10π

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 * 1)
c = 2π


4

Solve for b:
-5b + 9 = -7 - 6b

58% Answer Correctly
-16
-1\(\frac{4}{5}\)
-8
\(\frac{5}{7}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.

-5b + 9 = -7 - 6b
-5b = -7 - 6b - 9
-5b + 6b = -7 - 9
b = -16


5

If side a = 4, side b = 5, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

63% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{41} \)
5
\( \sqrt{52} \)
\( \sqrt{97} \)

Solution

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 42 + 52
c2 = 16 + 25
c2 = 41
c = \( \sqrt{41} \)
