1

For this diagram, the Pythagorean theorem states that b2 = ?

47% Answer Correctly

c - a

a2 - c2

c2 - a2

c2 + a2


Solution

The Pythagorean theorem defines the relationship between the side lengths of a right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse squared (c2) is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared (a2 + b2): c2 = a2 + b2 or, solved for c, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)


2

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

24% Answer Correctly

c = π d

c = π r2

c = π d2

c = π r


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.


3

Find the value of c:
-4c + z = 8
8c + 2z = 7

42% Answer Correctly
-\(\frac{20}{29}\)
-\(\frac{9}{16}\)
2\(\frac{3}{22}\)
1

Solution

You need to find the value of c so solve the first equation in terms of z:

-4c + z = 8
z = 8 + 4c

then substitute the result (8 - -4c) into the second equation:

8c + 2(8 + 4c) = 7
8c + (2 x 8) + (2 x 4c) = 7
8c + 16 + 8c = 7
8c + 8c = 7 - 16
16c = -9
c = \( \frac{-9}{16} \)
c = -\(\frac{9}{16}\)


4

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 7 and radius (r) = 5. What is the volume?

63% Answer Correctly
243π
18π
175π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(52 x 7)
v = 175π


5

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

78% Answer Correctly

a = π d2

a = π d

a = π r

a = 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.
