1

Which types of triangles will always have at least two sides of equal length?

54% Answer Correctly

isosceles and right

equilateral, isosceles and right

equilateral and right

equilateral and isosceles


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.


2

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of __________ sides.

70% Answer Correctly

equal length

right angle

equal angle

parallel


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


3

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

57% Answer Correctly

area = ½bh

sum of interior angles = 180°

perimeter = sum of side lengths

exterior angle = sum of two adjacent interior angles


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.


4

If a = 8, b = 7, c = 8, and d = 7, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
24
30
14
20

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 8 + 7 + 8 + 7
p = 30


5

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 7, length (l) = 4, and width (w) = 2. What is the volume?

82% Answer Correctly
56
729
15
96

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 7 x 4 x 2
v = 56
