2

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 6 and radius (r) = 9. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
24π
486π
16π
54π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(92 x 6)
v = 486π


3

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

51% Answer Correctly

quadrilateral

rhombus

trapezoid

triangle

4

If the base of this triangle is 3 and the height is 9, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
52\(\frac{1}{2}\)
84\(\frac{1}{2}\)
13\(\frac{1}{2}\)
39

Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 3 x 9 = \( \frac{27}{2} \) = 13\(\frac{1}{2}\)


5

If side x = 15cm, side y = 14cm, and side z = 14cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
35cm
32cm
24cm
43cm

Solution

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 15cm + 14cm + 14cm = 43cm
