If side x = 8cm, side y = 14cm, and side z = 12cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
27cm
31cm
33cm
34cm

Solution

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

p = x + y + z
p = 8cm + 14cm + 12cm = 34cm

5

The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 4, b = 5, c = 5, d = 7, and h = 2. What is the area?

51% Answer Correctly
12
24
15
30

Solution

The area of a trapezoid is one-half the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides multiplied by the height:

a = ½(b + d)(h)
a = ½(5 + 7)(2)
a = ½(12)(2)
a = ½(24) = \( \frac{24}{2} \)
a = 12
