1

If angle a = 27° and angle b = 54° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
147°
139°
153°
135°

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° - 27° - 54° = 99°

So, d° = 54° + 99° = 153°

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° - 27° = 153°


2

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 4 and radius (r) = 1. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
252π
256π
10π
324π

Solution

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

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(12) + 2π(1 x 4)
sa = 2π(1) + 2π(4)
sa = (2 x 1)π + (2 x 4)π
sa = 2π + 8π
sa = 10π


3

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

52% Answer Correctly

quadrilateral

rhombus

trapezoid

triangle


Solution

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


4

If side a = 9, side b = 4, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

64% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{97} \)
\( \sqrt{68} \)
\( \sqrt{89} \)
\( \sqrt{18} \)

Solution

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 92 + 42
c2 = 81 + 16
c2 = 97
c = \( \sqrt{97} \)


5

A cylinder with a radius (r) and a height (h) has a surface area of:

54% Answer Correctly

4π r2

π r2h

2(π r2) + 2π rh

π r2h2


Solution

A cylinder is a solid figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section with a radius (r) and a height (h). The volume of a cylinder is π r2h and the surface area is 2(π r2) + 2π rh.
