If angle a = 65° and angle b = 39° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
77°
76°
71°
50°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 65° - 39° = 76°


2

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

54% Answer Correctly

π r2h

2(π r2) + 2π rh

4π r2

π r2h2


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.


3

Solve for y:
2y - 4 > -6 + 8y

55% Answer Correctly
y > \(\frac{5}{7}\)
y > \(\frac{1}{3}\)
y > 1\(\frac{1}{5}\)
y > \(\frac{3}{4}\)

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 > sign and the answer on the other.

2y - 4 > -6 + 8y
2y > -6 + 8y + 4
2y - 8y > -6 + 4
-6y > -2
y > \( \frac{-2}{-6} \)
y > \(\frac{1}{3}\)


4

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

71% Answer Correctly

circumference

chord

diameter

radius


Solution

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).


5

Simplify (y - 8)(y + 7)

64% Answer Correctly
y2 + 15y + 56
y2 - 15y + 56
y2 - y - 56
y2 + y - 56

Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses:

(y - 8)(y + 7)
(y x y) + (y x 7) + (-8 x y) + (-8 x 7)
y2 + 7y - 8y - 56
y2 - y - 56
