1

Which types of triangles will always have at least two sides of equal length?

54% Answer Correctly

equilateral and right

equilateral and isosceles

isosceles and right

equilateral, isosceles and right


Solution

An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length. An equilateral triangle has three sides of equal length. In a right triangle, two sides meet at a right angle.


2

Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

74% Answer Correctly

squaring

factoring

normalizing

deconstructing


Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.


3

What is the area of a circle with a diameter of 6?

69% Answer Correctly
49π
16π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2. Radius is circle \( \frac{diameter}{2} \):

r = \( \frac{d}{2} \)
r = \( \frac{6}{2} \)
r = 3
a = πr2
a = π(32)
a = 9π


4

On this circle, a line segment connecting point A to point D is called:

46% Answer Correctly

circumference

chord

radius

diameter


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

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 7 and radius (r) = 1. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
16π
140π
126π

Solution

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

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(12) + 2π(1 x 7)
sa = 2π(1) + 2π(7)
sa = (2 x 1)π + (2 x 7)π
sa = 2π + 14π
sa = 16π
