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

57% Answer Correctly

exterior angle = sum of two adjacent interior angles

perimeter = sum of side lengths

area = ½bh

sum of interior angles = 180°


Solution

A triangle is a three-sided polygon. It has three interior angles that add up to 180° (a + b + c = 180°). An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite (d = b + c). The perimeter of a triangle is equal to the sum of the lengths of its three sides, the height of a triangle is equal to the length from the base to the opposite vertex (angle) and the area equals one-half triangle base x height: a = ½ base x height.


2

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 8, length (l) = 7, and width (w) = 1. What is the volume?

82% Answer Correctly
210
45
63
56

Solution

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

v = h x l x w
v = 8 x 7 x 1
v = 56


3

If the base of this triangle is 3 and the height is 8, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
12
84
58\(\frac{1}{2}\)
90

Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 3 x 8 = \( \frac{24}{2} \) = 12


4

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 8, length (l) = 4, and width (w) = 7. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
136
286
232
212

Solution

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 4 x 7) + (2 x 7 x 8) + (2 x 4 x 8)
sa = (56) + (112) + (64)
sa = 232


5

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

81% Answer Correctly

binomial

polynomial

quadratic

monomial


Solution

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.
