1

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 4, length (l) = 2, and width (w) = 8. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
147
64
28
8

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 4 x 2 x 8
v = 64


2

If angle a = 63° and angle b = 41° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
120°
117°
116°
135°

Solution

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° - 63° - 41° = 76°

So, d° = 41° + 76° = 117°

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° - 63° = 117°


3

A right angle measures:

91% Answer Correctly

45°

180°

360°

90°


Solution

A right angle measures 90 degrees and is the intersection of two perpendicular lines. In diagrams, a right angle is indicated by a small box completing a square with the perpendicular lines.


4

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

58% Answer Correctly

sum of interior angles = 180°

area = ½bh

exterior angle = sum of two adjacent interior angles

perimeter = sum of side lengths


Solution

A triangle is a three-sided polygon. It has three interior angles that add up to 180° (a + b + c = 180°). An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite (d = b + c). The perimeter of a triangle is equal to the sum of the lengths of its three sides, the height of a triangle is equal to the length from the base to the opposite vertex (angle) and the area equals one-half triangle base x height: a = ½ base x height.


5

If a = 6, b = 4, c = 5, and d = 2, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
17
22
28
15

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 6 + 4 + 5 + 2
p = 17
