1

If side x = 6cm, side y = 10cm, and side z = 9cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

85% Answer Correctly
37cm
24cm
40cm
25cm

Solution

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 6cm + 10cm + 9cm = 25cm


2

A right angle measures:

91% Answer Correctly

180°

45°

360°

90°


Solution

A right angle measures 90 degrees and is the intersection of two perpendicular lines. In diagrams, a right angle is indicated by a small box completing a square with the perpendicular lines.


3

Simplify 9a x 8b.

86% Answer Correctly
72ab
72\( \frac{a}{b} \)
17ab
72\( \frac{b}{a} \)

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

9a x 8b = (9 x 8) (a x b) = 72ab


4

Which of the following statements about parallel lines with a transversal is not correct?

36% Answer Correctly

all acute angles equal each other

all of the angles formed by a transversal are called interior angles

angles in the same position on different parallel lines are called corresponding angles

same-side interior angles are complementary and equal each other


Solution

Parallel lines are lines that share the same slope (steepness) and therefore never intersect. A transversal occurs when a set of parallel lines are crossed by another line. All of the angles formed by a transversal are called interior angles and angles in the same position on different parallel lines equal each other (a° = w°, b° = x°, c° = z°, d° = y°) and are called corresponding angles. Alternate interior angles are equal (a° = z°, b° = y°, c° = w°, d° = x°) and all acute angles (a° = c° = w° = z°) and all obtuse angles (b° = d° = x° = y°) equal each other. Same-side interior angles are supplementary and add up to 180° (e.g. a° + d° = 180°, d° + c° = 180°).

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 1 and radius (r) = 8. What is the volume?

63% Answer Correctly
64π
144π
16π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(82 x 1)
v = 64π
