1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 1 and radius (r) = 8. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
44π
132π
144π
60π

Solution

The surface area of a cylinder is 2πr2 + 2πrh:

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(82) + 2π(8 x 1)
sa = 2π(64) + 2π(8)
sa = (2 x 64)π + (2 x 8)π
sa = 128π + 16π
sa = 144π


2

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

54% Answer Correctly

equilateral, isosceles and right

equilateral and right

isosceles and right

equilateral and isosceles


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.


3

What is 4a4 - 2a4?

74% Answer Correctly
2a4
6
2a8
8a8

Solution

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

4a4 - 2a4 = 2a4


4

Simplify 7a x 5b.

86% Answer Correctly
35\( \frac{a}{b} \)
35ab
12ab
35\( \frac{b}{a} \)

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

7a x 5b = (7 x 5) (a x b) = 35ab


5

If the base of this triangle is 1 and the height is 9, what is the area?

59% Answer Correctly
71\(\frac{1}{2}\)
32\(\frac{1}{2}\)
25
4\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

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

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 1 x 9 = \( \frac{9}{2} \) = 4\(\frac{1}{2}\)
