1

If a = 1, b = 5, c = 3, and d = 7, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
18
16
17
24

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 1 + 5 + 3 + 7
p = 16


2

If a = c = 8, b = d = 9, what is the area of this rectangle?

79% Answer Correctly
7
45
8
72

Solution

The area of a rectangle is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 8 x 9
a = 72


3

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

60% Answer Correctly

obtuse, acute

vertical, supplementary

supplementary, vertical

acute, obtuse


Solution

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).


4

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

67% Answer Correctly

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

lw x wh + lh

h x l x w

h2 x l2 x w2


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.


5

If b = 2 and z = -9, what is the value of -8b(b - z)?

68% Answer Correctly
-81
-120
0
-176

Solution

To solve this equation, 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.)

-8b(b - z)
-8(2)(2 + 9)
-8(2)(11)
(-16)(11)
-176
