1

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

89% Answer Correctly

y-axis

origin

all of these

x-axis


Solution

The coordinate grid is composed of a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. The center of the grid, where the x-axis and y-axis meet, is called the origin.


2

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

67% Answer Correctly

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

lw x wh + lh

h x l x w

h2 x l2 x w2


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.


3

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

24% Answer Correctly

c = π r2

c = π r

c = π d

c = π d2


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.


4

If a = c = 2, b = d = 9, and the blue angle = 70°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

65% Answer Correctly
12
54
18
7

Solution

The area of a parallelogram is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 2 x 9
a = 18


5

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

57% Answer Correctly

sum of interior angles = 180°

exterior angle = sum of two adjacent interior angles

area = ½bh

perimeter = sum of side lengths


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.
