On this circle, line segment CD is the:
circumference |
|
chord |
|
radius |
|
diameter |
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 a = 2, side b = 8, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?
| \( \sqrt{13} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{68} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{74} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{20} \) |
According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:
c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 22 + 82
c2 = 4 + 64
c2 = 68
c = \( \sqrt{68} \)
If angle a = 52° and angle b = 63° what is the length of angle d?
| 151° | |
| 128° | |
| 112° | |
| 155° |
An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite:
d° = b° + c°
To find angle c, remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 52° - 63° = 65°
So, d° = 63° + 65° = 128°
A shortcut to get this answer is to remember that angles around a line add up to 180°:
a° + d° = 180°
d° = 180° - a°
d° = 180° - 52° = 128°
The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 1, length (l) = 6, and width (w) = 3. What is the surface area?
| 54 | |
| 112 | |
| 88 | |
| 38 |
The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):
sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 6 x 3) + (2 x 3 x 1) + (2 x 6 x 1)
sa = (36) + (6) + (12)
sa = 54
If a = c = 2, b = d = 7, what is the area of this rectangle?
| 7 | |
| 14 | |
| 4 | |
| 5 |
The area of a rectangle is equal to its length x width:
a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 2 x 7
a = 14
