What is the area of a circle with a diameter of 8?

70% Answer Correctly
16π
64π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2. Radius is circle \( \frac{diameter}{2} \):

r = \( \frac{d}{2} \)
r = \( \frac{8}{2} \)
r = 4
a = πr2
a = π(42)
a = 16π


2

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

68% Answer Correctly

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

h x l x w

lw x wh + lh

h2 x l2 x w2


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.


3

If a = c = 2, b = d = 3, and the blue angle = 66°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

66% Answer Correctly
6
35
18
48

Solution

The area of a parallelogram is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 2 x 3
a = 6


4

If side x = 10cm, side y = 15cm, and side z = 10cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

85% Answer Correctly
35cm
33cm
34cm
25cm

Solution

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

p = x + y + z
p = 10cm + 15cm + 10cm = 35cm


5

The endpoints of this line segment are at (-2, -7) and (2, 5). What is the slope-intercept equation for this line?

42% Answer Correctly
y = 3x - 1
y = -3x + 4
y = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 3
y = \(\frac{1}{2}\)x - 4

Solution

The slope-intercept equation for a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept of the line. From the graph, you can see that the y-intercept (the y-value from the point where the line crosses the y-axis) is -1. 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, -7) and (2, 5) so the slope becomes:

m = \( \frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x} \) = \( \frac{(5.0) - (-7.0)}{(2) - (-2)} \) = \( \frac{12}{4} \)
m = 3

Plugging these values into the slope-intercept equation:

y = 3x - 1
