1

If the base of this triangle is 3 and the height is 6, what is the area?

59% Answer Correctly
35
9
18
49\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

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

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 3 x 6 = \( \frac{18}{2} \) = 9


2

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 1, length (l) = 9, and width (w) = 3. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
192
16
27
18

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 1 x 9 x 3
v = 27


3

If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.

46% Answer Correctly

bisects

midpoints

intersects

trisects


Solution

A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.


4

The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

24% Answer Correctly

c = π r

c = π d2

c = π r2

c = π d


Solution

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.


5

Solve for z:
-6z - 9 = \( \frac{z}{8} \)

46% Answer Correctly
-1\(\frac{23}{49}\)
-1\(\frac{5}{27}\)
-\(\frac{63}{64}\)
-4\(\frac{4}{9}\)

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 equal sign and the answer on the other.

-6z - 9 = \( \frac{z}{8} \)
8 x (-6z - 9) = z
(8 x -6z) + (8 x -9) = z
-48z - 72 = z
-48z - 72 - z = 0
-48z - z = 72
-49z = 72
z = \( \frac{72}{-49} \)
z = -1\(\frac{23}{49}\)
