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

24% Answer Correctly

c = π d

c = π d2

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

On this circle, line segment CD is the:

46% Answer Correctly

chord

circumference

radius

diameter


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).

If angle a = 68° and angle b = 64° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
112°
141°
114°
148°

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° - 68° - 64° = 48°

So, d° = 64° + 48° = 112°

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° - 68° = 112°


4

Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

74% Answer Correctly

factoring

normalizing

deconstructing

squaring


Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.


5

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

45% Answer Correctly

midpoints

trisects

intersects

bisects


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.
