1

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

52% Answer Correctly

triangle

quadrilateral

rhombus

trapezoid


Solution

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


2

Simplify (y + 4)(y + 6)

64% Answer Correctly
y2 - 2y - 24
y2 + 10y + 24
y2 + 2y - 24
y2 - 10y + 24

Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses:

(y + 4)(y + 6)
(y x y) + (y x 6) + (4 x y) + (4 x 6)
y2 + 6y + 4y + 24
y2 + 10y + 24


3

What is 4a2 + 5a2?

76% Answer Correctly
20a2
9
9a2
20a4

Solution

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

4a2 + 5a2 = 9a2


4

On this circle, a line segment connecting point A to point D is called:

46% Answer Correctly

chord

diameter

circumference

radius


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).


5

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 5 and radius (r) = 4. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
40π
72π
80π

Solution

The surface area of a cylinder is 2πr2 + 2πrh:

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(42) + 2π(4 x 5)
sa = 2π(16) + 2π(20)
sa = (2 x 16)π + (2 x 20)π
sa = 32π + 40π
sa = 72π
