What is the circumference of a circle with a radius of 18?

71% Answer Correctly
19π
13π
30π
36π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π. Circle diameter is 2 x radius:

c = πd
c = π(2 * r)
c = π(2 * 18)
c = 36π


2

If a = 5, b = 2, c = 2, and d = 6, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
23
15
18
32

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 5 + 2 + 2 + 6
p = 15


3

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

50% Answer Correctly

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

the area of a parallelogram is base x height

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral


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).


4

The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 6, b = 7, c = 8, d = 5, and h = 5. What is the area?

51% Answer Correctly
7\(\frac{1}{2}\)
30
35
13

Solution

The area of a trapezoid is one-half the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides multiplied by the height:

a = ½(b + d)(h)
a = ½(7 + 5)(5)
a = ½(12)(5)
a = ½(60) = \( \frac{60}{2} \)
a = 30


5

Which of the following is not required to define the slope-intercept equation for a line?

42% Answer Correctly

\({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\)

y-intercept

x-intercept

slope


Solution

A line on the coordinate grid can be defined by a slope-intercept equation: y = mx + b. For a given value of x, the value of y can be determined given the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) of the line. The slope of a line is change in y over change in x, \({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\), and the y-intercept is the y-coordinate where the line crosses the vertical y-axis.
