If side x = 14cm, side y = 5cm, and side z = 11cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?
| 39cm | |
| 35cm | |
| 30cm | |
| 38cm |
The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:
p = x + y + z
p = 14cm + 5cm + 11cm = 30cm
What is the area of a circle with a diameter of 8?
| 16π | |
| 49π | |
| 4π | |
| 36π |
The formula for area is πr2. Radius is circle \( \frac{diameter}{2} \):
r = \( \frac{d}{2} \)
r = \( \frac{8}{2} \)
r = 4
a = πr2
a = π(42)
a = 16π
Which of the following statements about math operations is incorrect?
you can add monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent |
|
you can multiply monomials that have different variables and different exponents |
|
all of these statements are correct |
|
you can subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent |
You can only add or subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent. For example, 2a + 4a = 6a and 4a2 - a2 = 3a2 but 2a + 4b and 7a - 3b cannot be combined. However, you can multiply and divide monomials with unlike terms. For example, 2a x 6b = 12ab.
If side a = 9, side b = 9, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?
| \( \sqrt{162} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{117} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{10} \) | |
| \( \sqrt{65} \) |
According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:
c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 92 + 92
c2 = 81 + 81
c2 = 162
c = \( \sqrt{162} \)
If angle a = 52° and angle b = 67° what is the length of angle d?
| 138° | |
| 145° | |
| 128° | |
| 152° |
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° - 52° - 67° = 61°
So, d° = 67° + 61° = 128°
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° - 52° = 128°
