1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 6 and radius (r) = 2. What is the volume?

63% Answer Correctly
32π
200π
24π
48π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(22 x 6)
v = 24π


2

If angle a = 26° and angle b = 59° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
64°
80°
63°
95°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 26° - 59° = 95°


3

The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?

24% Answer Correctly

c = π d

c = π d2

c = π r

c = π r2


Solution

The circumference of a circle is the distance around its perimeter and equals π (approx. 3.14159) x diameter: c = π d. The area of a circle is π x (radius)2 : a = π r2.


4

Which of the following is not true about both rectangles and squares?

63% Answer Correctly

the lengths of all sides are equal

the area is length x width

the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all four sides

all interior angles are right angles


Solution

A rectangle is a parallelogram containing four right angles. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) are equal and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d) or, comonly, 2 x length x width. The area of a rectangle is length x width. A square is a rectangle with four equal length sides. The perimeter of a square is 4 x length of one side (4s) and the area is the length of one side squared (s2).


5

If side a = 3, side b = 2, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

64% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{20} \)
\( \sqrt{32} \)
\( \sqrt{13} \)
\( \sqrt{113} \)

Solution

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

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 32 + 22
c2 = 9 + 4
c2 = 13
c = \( \sqrt{13} \)
