If angle a = 40° and angle b = 45° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
135°
140°
134°
113°

Solution

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite:

d° = b° + c°

To find angle c, remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:

180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 40° - 45° = 95°

So, d° = 45° + 95° = 140°

A shortcut to get this answer is to remember that angles around a line add up to 180°:

a° + d° = 180°
d° = 180° - a°
d° = 180° - 40° = 140°

Simplify (5a)(9ab) - (2a2)(3b).

62% Answer Correctly
39a2b
51a2b
70ab2
-39ab2

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)(9ab) - (2a2)(3b)
(5 x 9)(a x a x b) - (2 x 3)(a2 x b)
(45)(a1+1 x b) - (6)(a2b)
45a2b - 6a2b
39a2b

A cylinder with a radius (r) and a height (h) has a surface area of:

53% Answer Correctly

π r2h2

2(π r2) + 2π rh

π r2h

4π r2


Solution

A cylinder is a solid figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section with a radius (r) and a height (h). The volume of a cylinder is π r2h and the surface area is 2(π r2) + 2π rh.


4

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

70% Answer Correctly

circumference

diameter

chord

radius


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).


5

If a = 4, b = 8, c = 8, and d = 7, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
22
23
21
27

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 4 + 8 + 8 + 7
p = 27
