1

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

68% Answer Correctly

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

h2 x l2 x w2

h x l x w

lw x wh + lh


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.


2

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of __________ sides.

70% Answer Correctly

parallel

equal angle

equal length

right angle


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


3

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

58% Answer Correctly

sum of interior angles = 180°

perimeter = sum of side lengths

area = ½bh

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.


4

The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 5, b = 8, c = 7, d = 6, and h = 3. What is the area?

51% Answer Correctly
20
18
21
9

Solution

The area of a trapezoid is one-half the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides multiplied by the height:

a = ½(b + d)(h)
a = ½(8 + 6)(3)
a = ½(14)(3)
a = ½(42) = \( \frac{42}{2} \)
a = 21


5

If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.

46% Answer Correctly

trisects

intersects

midpoints

bisects


Solution

A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.
