On this circle, line segment CD is the:

46% Answer Correctly

diameter

chord

radius

circumference


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).


2

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

54% Answer Correctly

equilateral and isosceles

equilateral, isosceles and right

isosceles and right

equilateral and right


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.


3

Find the value of b:
6b + z = 2
-9b - 2z = -3

42% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{3}{13}\)
\(\frac{1}{3}\)
-1\(\frac{3}{4}\)
1\(\frac{16}{47}\)

Solution

You need to find the value of b so solve the first equation in terms of z:

6b + z = 2
z = 2 - 6b

then substitute the result (2 - 6b) into the second equation:

-9b - 2(2 - 6b) = -3
-9b + (-2 x 2) + (-2 x -6b) = -3
-9b - 4 + 12b = -3
-9b + 12b = -3 + 4
3b = 1
b = \( \frac{1}{3} \)
b = \(\frac{1}{3}\)


4

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

24% Answer Correctly

c = π d

c = π r2

c = π d2

c = π r


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.


5

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

71% Answer Correctly

diameter

radius

circumference

chord


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).
