1

If a = c = 8, b = d = 3, what is the area of this rectangle?

79% Answer Correctly
18
3
24
6

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 8 x 3
a = 24


2

If BD = 13 and AD = 15, AB = ?

75% Answer Correctly
2
3
5
7

Solution

The entire length of this line is represented by AD which is AB + BD:

AD = AB + BD

Solving for AB:

AB = AD - BD
AB = 15 - 13
AB = 2


3

Simplify (y - 6)(y - 3)

62% Answer Correctly
y2 - 9y + 18
y2 + 3y - 18
y2 - 3y - 18
y2 + 9y + 18

Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses:

(y - 6)(y - 3)
(y x y) + (y x -3) + (-6 x y) + (-6 x -3)
y2 - 3y - 6y + 18
y2 - 9y + 18


4

Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.

74% Answer Correctly

right, obtuse, acute

acute, right, obtuse

right, acute, obtuse

acute, obtuse, right


Solution

An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.


5

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

76% Answer Correctly

a = π d2

a = π d

a = π r

a = π r2


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.
