1

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

51% Answer Correctly

quadrilateral

triangle

trapezoid

rhombus


Solution

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


2

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 7, length (l) = 2, and width (w) = 2. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
64
58
78
62

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 2 x 2) + (2 x 2 x 7) + (2 x 2 x 7)
sa = (8) + (28) + (28)
sa = 64


3

What is the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 18?

71% Answer Correctly
16π
18π

Solution

The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π:

c = πd
c = 18π


4

If angle a = 21° and angle b = 53° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
160°
140°
129°
159°

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° - 21° - 53° = 106°

So, d° = 53° + 106° = 159°

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° - 21° = 159°


5

Simplify (6a)(2ab) - (9a2)(3b).

62% Answer Correctly
15ab2
39a2b
39ab2
-15a2b

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.

(6a)(2ab) - (9a2)(3b)
(6 x 2)(a x a x b) - (9 x 3)(a2 x b)
(12)(a1+1 x b) - (27)(a2b)
12a2b - 27a2b
-15a2b
