On this circle, line segment AB is the:

70% Answer Correctly

radius

circumference

diameter

chord


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).


2

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 2 and radius (r) = 7. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
36π
126π
108π
30π

Solution

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

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(72) + 2π(7 x 2)
sa = 2π(49) + 2π(14)
sa = (2 x 49)π + (2 x 14)π
sa = 98π + 28π
sa = 126π


3

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

46% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-\(\frac{1}{2}\)
3
1

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, 1) and (2, 5) so the slope becomes:

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


4

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

77% Answer Correctly

a = π d

a = π r

a = π d2

a = 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.


5

What is 4a - 6a?

79% Answer Correctly
-2a2
a2
-2a
10

Solution

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

4a - 6a = -2a
