1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 9 and radius (r) = 9. What is the volume?

63% Answer Correctly
128π
54π
729π
64π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(92 x 9)
v = 729π


2

A coordinate grid is composed of which of the following?

92% Answer Correctly

y-axis

all of these

origin

x-axis


Solution

The coordinate grid is composed of a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis. The center of the grid, where the x-axis and y-axis meet, is called the origin.


3

If side x = 14cm, side y = 7cm, and side z = 14cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

85% Answer Correctly
35cm
25cm
40cm
29cm

Solution

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

p = x + y + z
p = 14cm + 7cm + 14cm = 35cm


4

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

50% Answer Correctly

the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

the area of a parallelogram is base x height

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral


Solution

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).


5

Which of the following statements about parallel lines with a transversal is not correct?

37% Answer Correctly

same-side interior angles are complementary and equal each other

all of the angles formed by a transversal are called interior angles

all acute angles equal each other

angles in the same position on different parallel lines are called corresponding angles


Solution

Parallel lines are lines that share the same slope (steepness) and therefore never intersect. A transversal occurs when a set of parallel lines are crossed by another line. All of the angles formed by a transversal are called interior angles and angles in the same position on different parallel lines equal each other (a° = w°, b° = x°, c° = z°, d° = y°) and are called corresponding angles. Alternate interior angles are equal (a° = z°, b° = y°, c° = w°, d° = x°) and 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°).
