1

The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 6, b = 5, c = 8, d = 3, and h = 5. What is the area?

51% Answer Correctly
28
20
22
40

Solution

The area of a trapezoid is one-half the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides multiplied by the height:

a = ½(b + d)(h)
a = ½(5 + 3)(5)
a = ½(8)(5)
a = ½(40) = \( \frac{40}{2} \)
a = 20


2

If a = c = 2, b = d = 8, and the blue angle = 54°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

65% Answer Correctly
18
72
16
27

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 2 x 8
a = 16


3

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

42% Answer Correctly

y-intercept

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

x-intercept

slope


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.

Simplify (3a)(7ab) + (6a2)(5b).

65% Answer Correctly
51a2b
9a2b
9ab2
110ab2

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

(3a)(7ab) + (6a2)(5b)
(3 x 7)(a x a x b) + (6 x 5)(a2 x b)
(21)(a1+1 x b) + (30)(a2b)
21a2b + 30a2b
51a2b

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

53% Answer Correctly

π r2h2

π r2h

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.
