1

A quadrilateral is a shape with __________ sides.

91% Answer Correctly

4

2

3

5


Solution

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


2

What is the area of a circle with a radius of 5?

70% Answer Correctly
25π
64π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2:

a = πr2
a = π(52)
a = 25π


3

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

58% Answer Correctly

perimeter = sum of side lengths

area = ½bh

exterior angle = sum of two adjacent interior angles

sum of interior angles = 180°


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.


4

This diagram represents two parallel lines with a transversal. If d° = 152, what is the value of b°?

73% Answer Correctly
152
156
150
25

Solution

For parallel lines with a transversal, the following relationships apply:

  • angles in the same position on different parallel lines equal each other (a° = w°, b° = x°, c° = z°, d° = y°)
  • alternate interior angles are equal (a° = z°, b° = y°, c° = w°, d° = x°)
  • all acute angles (a° = c° = w° = z°) and all obtuse angles (b° = d° = x° = y°) equal each other
  • same-side interior angles are supplementary and add up to 180° (e.g. a° + d° = 180°, d° + c° = 180°)

Applying these relationships starting with d° = 152, the value of b° is 152.


5

If the base of this triangle is 2 and the height is 1, what is the area?

59% Answer Correctly
35
21
42
1

Solution

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

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 2 x 1 = \( \frac{2}{2} \) = 1
