The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

77% Answer Correctly

a = π r2

a = π d2

a = π r

a = π d


Solution

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.


2

What is the circumference of a circle with a radius of 2?

70% Answer Correctly
14π
22π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π. Circle diameter is 2 x radius:

c = πd
c = π(2 * r)
c = π(2 * 2)
c = 4π


3

Which of the following is not a part of PEMDAS, the acronym for math order of operations?

88% Answer Correctly

pairs

exponents

division

addition


Solution

When solving an equation with two variables, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)


4

Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.

74% Answer Correctly

acute, right, obtuse

right, obtuse, acute

right, acute, obtuse

acute, obtuse, right


Solution

An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.


5

If the base of this triangle is 8 and the height is 8, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
36
32
30
31\(\frac{1}{2}\)

Solution

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

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 8 x 8 = \( \frac{64}{2} \) = 32
