1

If angle a = 46° and angle b = 44° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
82°
90°
110°
54°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 46° - 44° = 90°


2

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

76% Answer Correctly

acute, right, obtuse

acute, obtuse, right

right, acute, obtuse

right, obtuse, acute


Solution

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


3

A cylinder with a radius (r) and a height (h) has a surface area of:

54% Answer Correctly

π r2h2

4π r2

2(π r2) + 2π rh

π r2h


Solution

A cylinder is a solid figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section with a radius (r) and a height (h). The volume of a cylinder is π r2h and the surface area is 2(π r2) + 2π rh.


4

Which of the following is not a part of PEMDAS, the acronym for math order of operations?

91% Answer Correctly

division

exponents

addition

pairs


Solution

When solving an equation with two variables, 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.)

Solve for x:
3x - 4 = \( \frac{x}{3} \)

46% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{27}{28}\)
1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-\(\frac{6}{19}\)
1\(\frac{1}{55}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.

3x - 4 = \( \frac{x}{3} \)
3 x (3x - 4) = x
(3 x 3x) + (3 x -4) = x
9x - 12 = x
9x - 12 - x = 0
9x - x = 12
8x = 12
x = \( \frac{12}{8} \)
x = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
