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

24% Answer Correctly

c = π d2

c = π d

c = π r

c = π r2


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.


2

4

If side x = 11cm, side y = 14cm, and side z = 12cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
25cm
37cm
35cm
32cm

Solution

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

p = x + y + z
p = 11cm + 14cm + 12cm = 37cm
