1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 9 and radius (r) = 1. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
20π
234π
198π
36π

Solution

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

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(12) + 2π(1 x 9)
sa = 2π(1) + 2π(9)
sa = (2 x 1)π + (2 x 9)π
sa = 2π + 18π
sa = 20π


2

What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 9?

71% Answer Correctly

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 9π


3

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

51% Answer Correctly

quadrilateral

triangle

rhombus

trapezoid


Solution

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


4

Solve for x:
x2 + 5x - 24 = 0

58% Answer Correctly
4 or -6
3 or -8
8 or 8
3 or -6

Solution

The first step to solve a quadratic equation that's set to zero is to factor the quadratic equation:

x2 + 5x - 24 = 0
(x - 3)(x + 8) = 0

For this expression to be true, the left side of the expression must equal zero. Therefore, either (x - 3) or (x + 8) must equal zero:

If (x - 3) = 0, x must equal 3
If (x + 8) = 0, x must equal -8

So the solution is that x = 3 or -8


5

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

75% Answer Correctly

acute, right, obtuse

acute, obtuse, right

right, acute, 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°.
