1

If side x = 11cm, side y = 8cm, and side z = 6cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

85% Answer Correctly
32cm
28cm
25cm
24cm

Solution

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

p = x + y + z
p = 11cm + 8cm + 6cm = 25cm


2

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

46% Answer Correctly

bisects

intersects

midpoints

trisects


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.


3

What is the area of a circle with a diameter of 10?

70% Answer Correctly
25π
64π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2. Radius is circle \( \frac{diameter}{2} \):

r = \( \frac{d}{2} \)
r = \( \frac{10}{2} \)
r = 5
a = πr2
a = π(52)
a = 25π


4

Solve for a:
4a - 3 < \( \frac{a}{-6} \)

44% Answer Correctly
a < 1\(\frac{5}{11}\)
a < -\(\frac{6}{49}\)
a < -\(\frac{5}{6}\)
a < \(\frac{18}{25}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the < sign and the answer on the other.

4a - 3 < \( \frac{a}{-6} \)
-6 x (4a - 3) < a
(-6 x 4a) + (-6 x -3) < a
-24a + 18 < a
-24a + 18 - a < 0
-24a - a < -18
-25a < -18
a < \( \frac{-18}{-25} \)
a < \(\frac{18}{25}\)


5

On this circle, a line segment connecting point A to point D is called:

46% Answer Correctly

circumference

diameter

radius

chord


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).
