1

What is the area of a circle with a radius of 5?

70% Answer Correctly
25π
16π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2:

a = πr2
a = π(52)
a = 25π


2

If side a = 4, side b = 7, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

64% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{90} \)
\( \sqrt{20} \)
\( \sqrt{65} \)
\( \sqrt{106} \)

Solution

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 42 + 72
c2 = 16 + 49
c2 = 65
c = \( \sqrt{65} \)


3

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 4, length (l) = 7, and width (w) = 1. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
122
78
232
212

Solution

The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):

sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 7 x 1) + (2 x 1 x 4) + (2 x 7 x 4)
sa = (14) + (8) + (56)
sa = 78


4

Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?

50% Answer Correctly

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

the area of a parallelogram is base x height

the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides


Solution

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).


5

What is 6a7 + 9a7?

75% Answer Correctly
54a14
15a14
15a7
15

Solution

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

6a7 + 9a7 = 15a7
