A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of the lengths of its four sides.
If the area of this square is 64, what is the length of one of the diagonals?
| 2\( \sqrt{2} \) | |
| 3\( \sqrt{2} \) | |
| 8\( \sqrt{2} \) | |
| 6\( \sqrt{2} \) |
To find the diagonal we need to know the length of one of the square's sides. We know the area and the area of a square is the length of one side squared:
a = s2
so the length of one side of the square is:
s = \( \sqrt{a} \) = \( \sqrt{64} \) = 8
The Pythagorean theorem defines the square of the hypotenuse (diagonal) of a triangle with a right angle as the sum of the squares of the other two sides:
c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 82 + 82
c2 = 128
c = \( \sqrt{128} \) = \( \sqrt{64 x 2} \) = \( \sqrt{64} \) \( \sqrt{2} \)
c = 8\( \sqrt{2} \)
The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?
c = π r2 |
|
c = π d2 |
|
c = π d |
|
c = π r |
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.
Which types of triangles will always have at least two sides of equal length?
equilateral, isosceles and right |
|
equilateral and right |
|
isosceles and right |
|
equilateral and isosceles |
An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length. An equilateral triangle has three sides of equal length. In a right triangle, two sides meet at a right angle.
The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?
h x l x w |
|
2lw x 2wh + 2lh |
|
lw x wh + lh |
|
h2 x l2 x w2 |
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.
