Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?

50% Answer Correctly

the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides

the area of a parallelogram is base x height

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal


Solution

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).


2

Solve for y:
y + 1 > \( \frac{y}{9} \)

44% Answer Correctly
y > 3
y > -\(\frac{30}{41}\)
y > -1\(\frac{1}{8}\)
y > -5\(\frac{2}{5}\)

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 > sign and the answer on the other.

y + 1 > \( \frac{y}{9} \)
9 x (y + 1) > y
(9 x y) + (9 x 1) > y
9y + 9 > y
9y + 9 - y > 0
9y - y > -9
8y > -9
y > \( \frac{-9}{8} \)
y > -1\(\frac{1}{8}\)


3

What is the area of a circle with a radius of 2?

69% Answer Correctly
81π
64π
49π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2:

a = πr2
a = π(22)
a = 4π


4

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

77% Answer Correctly

a = π r2

a = π r

a = π d

a = π d2


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.
