1

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

53% Answer Correctly

2(π r2) + 2π rh

π r2h2

π r2h

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.


2

If side a = 2, side b = 7, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

64% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{52} \)
\( \sqrt{117} \)
\( \sqrt{73} \)
\( \sqrt{53} \)

Solution

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 22 + 72
c2 = 4 + 49
c2 = 53
c = \( \sqrt{53} \)


3

Simplify (7a)(4ab) - (9a2)(4b).

62% Answer Correctly
64a2b
143ab2
-8a2b
64ab2

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.

(7a)(4ab) - (9a2)(4b)
(7 x 4)(a x a x b) - (9 x 4)(a2 x b)
(28)(a1+1 x b) - (36)(a2b)
28a2b - 36a2b
-8a2b


4

If angle a = 60° and angle b = 54° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
66°
72°
95°
122°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 60° - 54° = 66°


5

Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

74% Answer Correctly

deconstructing

squaring

factoring

normalizing


Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.
