1

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

76% Answer Correctly

right, acute, obtuse

right, obtuse, acute

acute, obtuse, right

acute, right, obtuse


Solution

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


2

Which of the following is not required to define the slope-intercept equation for a line?

42% Answer Correctly

\({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\)

x-intercept

slope

y-intercept


Solution

A line on the coordinate grid can be defined by a slope-intercept equation: y = mx + b. For a given value of x, the value of y can be determined given the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) of the line. The slope of a line is change in y over change in x, \({\Delta y \over \Delta x}\), and the y-intercept is the y-coordinate where the line crosses the vertical y-axis.


3

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 4 and radius (r) = 6. What is the volume?

63% Answer Correctly
125π
144π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(62 x 4)
v = 144π


4

Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

75% Answer Correctly

squaring

normalizing

factoring

deconstructing


Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.


5

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 7, length (l) = 9, and width (w) = 9. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
414
192
258
56

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 9 x 9) + (2 x 9 x 7) + (2 x 9 x 7)
sa = (162) + (126) + (126)
sa = 414
