Which of the following is not true about both rectangles and squares?

63% Answer Correctly

the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all four sides

all interior angles are right angles

the lengths of all sides are equal

the area is length x width


Solution

A rectangle is a parallelogram containing four right angles. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) are equal and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d) or, comonly, 2 x length x width. The area of a rectangle is length x width. A square is a rectangle with four equal length sides. The perimeter of a square is 4 x length of one side (4s) and the area is the length of one side squared (s2).

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 5, length (l) = 4, and width (w) = 4. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
58
112
158
382

Solution

The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):

sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 4 x 4) + (2 x 4 x 5) + (2 x 4 x 5)
sa = (32) + (40) + (40)
sa = 112


3

If angle a = 47° and angle b = 43° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
90°
75°
119°
95°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 47° - 43° = 90°


4

Simplify 7a x 6b.

86% Answer Correctly
42ab
42\( \frac{a}{b} \)
13ab
42\( \frac{b}{a} \)

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.

7a x 6b = (7 x 6) (a x b) = 42ab


5

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

83% Answer Correctly

monomial

binomial

quadratic

polynomial


Solution

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.
