1

A(n) __________ is to a parallelogram as a square is to a rectangle.

51% Answer Correctly

triangle

rhombus

trapezoid

quadrilateral


Solution

A rhombus is a parallelogram with four equal-length sides. A square is a rectangle with four equal-length sides.


2

What is 8a - 9a?

79% Answer Correctly
a2
17a2
-1a
-a2

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.

8a - 9a = -1a


3

If a = 2, b = 5, c = 3, and d = 4, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
14
26
25
16

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 2 + 5 + 3 + 4
p = 14


4

Simplify (5a)(8ab) + (5a2)(5b).

65% Answer Correctly
65a2b
130a2b
65ab2
15ab2

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)(8ab) + (5a2)(5b)
(5 x 8)(a x a x b) + (5 x 5)(a2 x b)
(40)(a1+1 x b) + (25)(a2b)
40a2b + 25a2b
65a2b


5

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 5 and radius (r) = 1. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
12π
144π
176π
182π

Solution

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

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(12) + 2π(1 x 5)
sa = 2π(1) + 2π(5)
sa = (2 x 1)π + (2 x 5)π
sa = 2π + 10π
sa = 12π
