1

If the base of this triangle is 1 and the height is 4, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
91
52
2
45

Solution

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

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 1 x 4 = \( \frac{4}{2} \) = 2


2

Which of the following is not required to define the slope-intercept equation for a line?

42% Answer Correctly

slope

y-intercept

x-intercept

\({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\)


Solution

A line on the coordinate grid can be defined by a slope-intercept equation: y = mx + b. For a given value of x, the value of y can be determined given the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) of the line. The slope of a line is change in y over change in x, \({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\), and the y-intercept is the y-coordinate where the line crosses the vertical y-axis.


3

A cylinder with a radius (r) and a height (h) has a surface area of:

53% Answer Correctly

π r2h

π r2h2

2(π r2) + 2π rh

4π r2


Solution

A cylinder is a solid figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section with a radius (r) and a height (h). The volume of a cylinder is π r2h and the surface area is 2(π r2) + 2π rh.


4

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

45% Answer Correctly

trisects

intersects

bisects

midpoints


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.


5

A right angle measures:

90% Answer Correctly

45°

90°

180°

360°


Solution

A right angle measures 90 degrees and is the intersection of two perpendicular lines. In diagrams, a right angle is indicated by a small box completing a square with the perpendicular lines.
