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

78% Answer Correctly

a = π r2

a = π r

a = π d

a = 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.


2

If angle a = 38° and angle b = 48° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
86°
69°
94°
65°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 38° - 48° = 94°


3

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 5, length (l) = 6, and width (w) = 5. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
150
21
96
36

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 5 x 6 x 5
v = 150


4

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of __________ sides.

71% Answer Correctly

right angle

equal length

equal angle

parallel


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


5

Find the value of a:
9a + y = 2
-5a - y = 8

42% Answer Correctly
2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
\(\frac{7}{17}\)
-\(\frac{12}{29}\)
\(\frac{3}{4}\)

Solution

You need to find the value of a so solve the first equation in terms of y:

9a + y = 2
y = 2 - 9a

then substitute the result (2 - 9a) into the second equation:

-5a - 1(2 - 9a) = 8
-5a + (-1 x 2) + (-1 x -9a) = 8
-5a - 2 + 9a = 8
-5a + 9a = 8 + 2
4a = 10
a = \( \frac{10}{4} \)
a = 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
