1

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

71% Answer Correctly

circumference

radius

diameter

chord
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).

2

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

83% Answer Correctly

binomial

polynomial

quadratic

monomial
Solution

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

3

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.

4

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

24% Answer Correctly

c = π d

c = π d2

c = π r

c = π r2
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.

5

If side a = 1, side b = 5, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

64% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{5} \)
\( \sqrt{26} \)
\( \sqrt{97} \)
\( \sqrt{32} \)
Solution

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 12 + 52
c2 = 1 + 25
c2 = 26
c = \( \sqrt{26} \)
