A right angle measures:

90% Answer Correctly

90°

180°

45°

360°


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.

Solve for z:
z2 - 49 = 0

58% Answer Correctly
7 or -7
6 or 6
5 or -5
4 or -3

Solution

The first step to solve a quadratic equation that's set to zero is to factor the quadratic equation:

z2 - 49 = 0
(z - 7)(z + 7) = 0

For this expression to be true, the left side of the expression must equal zero. Therefore, either (z - 7) or (z + 7) must equal zero:

If (z - 7) = 0, z must equal 7
If (z + 7) = 0, z must equal -7

So the solution is that z = 7 or -7


3

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

h x l x w

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

h2 x l2 x w2

lw x wh + lh


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.


4

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

24% Answer Correctly

c = π d2

c = π d

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.


5

If AD = 24 and BD = 23, AB = ?

76% Answer Correctly
10
4
5
1

Solution

The entire length of this line is represented by AD which is AB + BD:

AD = AB + BD

Solving for AB:

AB = AD - BD
AB = 24 - 23
AB = 1
