1

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 9, length (l) = 3, and width (w) = 3. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
190
70
26
126

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 3 x 3) + (2 x 3 x 9) + (2 x 3 x 9)
sa = (18) + (54) + (54)
sa = 126


2

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

57% Answer Correctly

area = ½bh

perimeter = sum of side lengths

sum of interior angles = 180°

exterior angle = sum of two adjacent interior angles


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.


3

On this circle, line segment CD is the:

46% Answer Correctly

diameter

circumference

chord

radius


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).


4

For this diagram, the Pythagorean theorem states that b2 = ?

47% Answer Correctly

c - a

a2 - c2

c2 + a2

c2 - a2


Solution

The Pythagorean theorem defines the relationship between the side lengths of a right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse squared (c2) is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared (a2 + b2): c2 = a2 + b2 or, solved for c, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)


5

Which of the following expressions contains exactly two terms?

83% Answer Correctly

binomial

monomial

polynomial

quadratic


Solution

A monomial contains one term, a binomial contains two terms, and a polynomial contains more than two terms.
