1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 4 and radius (r) = 8. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
192π
176π
10π
88π

Solution

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

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(82) + 2π(8 x 4)
sa = 2π(64) + 2π(32)
sa = (2 x 64)π + (2 x 32)π
sa = 128π + 64π
sa = 192π


2

What is the area of a circle with a radius of 2?

69% Answer Correctly
4π
9π
8π
64π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2:

a = πr2
a = π(22)
a = 4π


3

If angle a = 67° and angle b = 31° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
127°
113°
112°
129°

Solution

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite:

d° = b° + c°

To find angle c, remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:

180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 67° - 31° = 82°

So, d° = 31° + 82° = 113°

A shortcut to get this answer is to remember that angles around a line add up to 180°:

a° + d° = 180°
d° = 180° - a°
d° = 180° - 67° = 113°


4

A(n) __________ is to a parallelogram as a square is to a rectangle.

51% Answer Correctly

triangle

rhombus

quadrilateral

trapezoid


Solution

A rhombus is a parallelogram with four equal-length sides. A square is a rectangle with four equal-length sides.


5

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -1) and (2, 9). What is the slope of this line?

46% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{1}{2}\)
1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
-2

Solution

The slope of this line is the change in y divided by the change in x. The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -1) and (2, 9) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(9.0) - (-1.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{10}{4} \)
m = 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
