1

If a = 9, b = 5, c = 1, and d = 1, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
13
12
16
19

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 9 + 5 + 1 + 1
p = 16


2

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 2, length (l) = 3, and width (w) = 9. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
52
102
124
168

Solution

The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):

sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 3 x 9) + (2 x 9 x 2) + (2 x 3 x 2)
sa = (54) + (36) + (12)
sa = 102


3

What is 6a + 7a?

81% Answer Correctly
13
13a2
42a
13a

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.

6a + 7a = 13a


4

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

75% Answer Correctly

acute, right, obtuse

right, acute, obtuse

right, obtuse, acute

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 angle a = 49° and angle b = 41° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
129°
132°
131°
127°

Solution

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite:

d° = b° + c°

To find angle c, remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:

180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 49° - 41° = 90°

So, d° = 41° + 90° = 131°

A shortcut to get this answer is to remember that angles around a line add up to 180°:

a° + d° = 180°
d° = 180° - a°
d° = 180° - 49° = 131°
