1

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 4, length (l) = 8, and width (w) = 8. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
76
142
38
256

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 8 x 8) + (2 x 8 x 4) + (2 x 8 x 4)
sa = (128) + (64) + (64)
sa = 256


2

If side x = 5cm, side y = 11cm, and side z = 6cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
22cm
24cm
23cm
28cm

Solution

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

p = x + y + z
p = 5cm + 11cm + 6cm = 22cm


3

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

77% Answer Correctly

a = π r2

a = π d

a = π r

a = π d2


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.


4

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

49% 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 9a + 4a?

81% Answer Correctly
36a2
13a2
5a2
13a

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.

9a + 4a = 13a
