1

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 7, length (l) = 9, and width (w) = 6. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
82
34
318
228

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 9 x 6) + (2 x 6 x 7) + (2 x 9 x 7)
sa = (108) + (84) + (126)
sa = 318


2

The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 6, b = 6, c = 7, d = 3, and h = 4. What is the area?

51% Answer Correctly
15
18
28
8

Solution

The area of a trapezoid is one-half the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides multiplied by the height:

a = ½(b + d)(h)
a = ½(6 + 3)(4)
a = ½(9)(4)
a = ½(36) = \( \frac{36}{2} \)
a = 18


3

If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.

46% Answer Correctly

midpoints

intersects

trisects

bisects


Solution

A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.


4

Which of the following statements about a triangle is not true?

58% Answer Correctly

sum of interior angles = 180°

exterior angle = sum of two adjacent interior angles

perimeter = sum of side lengths

area = ½bh


Solution

A triangle is a three-sided polygon. It has three interior angles that add up to 180° (a + b + c = 180°). An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite (d = b + c). The perimeter of a triangle is equal to the sum of the lengths of its three sides, the height of a triangle is equal to the length from the base to the opposite vertex (angle) and the area equals one-half triangle base x height: a = ½ base x height.


5

Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.

76% Answer Correctly

acute, obtuse, right

right, acute, obtuse

acute, right, obtuse

right, obtuse, acute


Solution

An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.
