What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 12?

71% Answer Correctly
14π
12π
17π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 12π


2

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

78% Answer Correctly

a = π r2

a = π d

a = π r

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.


3

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

72% Answer Correctly

diameter

circumference

chord

radius


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).


4

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 7 and radius (r) = 6. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
196π
156π
112π
20π

Solution

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

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(62) + 2π(6 x 7)
sa = 2π(36) + 2π(42)
sa = (2 x 36)π + (2 x 42)π
sa = 72π + 84π
sa = 156π


5

If the base of this triangle is 5 and the height is 1, what is the area?

59% Answer Correctly
40\(\frac{1}{2}\)
49
32\(\frac{1}{2}\)
2\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

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

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 5 x 1 = \( \frac{5}{2} \) = 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
