1

A(n) __________ is to a parallelogram as a square is to a rectangle.

51% Answer Correctly

triangle

trapezoid

rhombus

quadrilateral


Solution

A rhombus is a parallelogram with four equal-length sides. A square is a rectangle with four equal-length sides.


2

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 3, length (l) = 5, and width (w) = 6. What is the volume?

82% Answer Correctly
16
18
12
90

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 3 x 5 x 6
v = 90


3

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

88% Answer Correctly

exponents

addition

division

pairs


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

If side x = 11cm, side y = 8cm, and side z = 10cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
35cm
37cm
26cm
29cm

Solution

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

p = x + y + z
p = 11cm + 8cm + 10cm = 29cm


5

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

47% Answer Correctly

a2 - c2

c - a

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, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)
