Which of the following is not true about both rectangles and squares?

63% Answer Correctly

the area is length x width

the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all four sides

all interior angles are right angles

the lengths of all sides are equal


Solution

A rectangle is a parallelogram containing four right angles. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) are equal and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d) or, comonly, 2 x length x width. The area of a rectangle is length x width. A square is a rectangle with four equal length sides. The perimeter of a square is 4 x length of one side (4s) and the area is the length of one side squared (s2).

If BD = 22 and AD = 29, AB = ?

76% Answer Correctly
6
7
14
13

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 = 29 - 22
AB = 7


3

If a = 4, b = 9, c = 6, and d = 9, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
16
21
28
12

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 4 + 9 + 6 + 9
p = 28


4

On this circle, a line segment connecting point A to point D is called:

46% Answer Correctly

circumference

radius

chord

diameter


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).

If side x = 11cm, side y = 10cm, and side z = 9cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

85% Answer Correctly
25cm
26cm
24cm
30cm

Solution

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 11cm + 10cm + 9cm = 30cm
