1

If a = c = 7, b = d = 8, and the blue angle = 76°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

65% Answer Correctly
56
48
2
6

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 7 x 8
a = 56


2

If c = -7 and z = -5, what is the value of 9c(c - z)?

68% Answer Correctly
126
864
4
-176

Solution

To solve this equation, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)

9c(c - z)
9(-7)(-7 + 5)
9(-7)(-2)
(-63)(-2)
126


3

Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?

49% Answer Correctly

the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

the area of a parallelogram is base x height


Solution

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).


4

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

76% Answer Correctly

a = π d

a = π r

a = π r2

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.


5

Which types of triangles will always have at least two sides of equal length?

53% Answer Correctly

equilateral and isosceles

equilateral, isosceles and right

isosceles and right

equilateral and right


Solution

An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length. An equilateral triangle has three sides of equal length. In a right triangle, two sides meet at a right angle.
