1

If the base of this triangle is 3 and the height is 8, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
12
97\(\frac{1}{2}\)
42
82\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 3 x 8 = \( \frac{24}{2} \) = 12


2

A quadrilateral is a shape with __________ sides.

91% Answer Correctly

5

3

2

4


Solution

A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of the lengths of its four sides.


3

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

67% Answer Correctly

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

h2 x l2 x w2

lw x wh + lh

h x l x w


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.


4

Solve -9c + 3c = 8c + x - 1 for c in terms of x.

34% Answer Correctly
x + 4
-2\(\frac{1}{3}\)x - \(\frac{5}{6}\)
x + 4\(\frac{1}{2}\)
\(\frac{2}{17}\)x + \(\frac{1}{17}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, isolate the variable for which you are solving (c) on one side of the equation and put everything else on the other side.

-9c + 3x = 8c + x - 1
-9c = 8c + x - 1 - 3x
-9c - 8c = x - 1 - 3x
-17c = -2x - 1
c = \( \frac{-2x - 1}{-17} \)
c = \( \frac{-2x}{-17} \) + \( \frac{-1}{-17} \)
c = \(\frac{2}{17}\)x + \(\frac{1}{17}\)


5

If angle a = 35° and angle b = 51° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
94°
92°
100°
62°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 35° - 51° = 94°
