On this circle, line segment AB is the:

71% Answer Correctly

circumference

chord

radius

diameter


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).


2

Which types of triangles will always have at least two sides of equal length?

54% Answer Correctly

isosceles and right

equilateral, isosceles and right

equilateral and isosceles

equilateral and right


Solution

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.


3

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

24% Answer Correctly

c = π d2

c = π r

c = π d

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

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 1, length (l) = 1, and width (w) = 1. What is the volume?

83% Answer Correctly
216
1
56
168

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 1 x 1 x 1
v = 1


5

Which of the following is not a part of PEMDAS, the acronym for math order of operations?

91% Answer Correctly

exponents

division

pairs

addition


Solution

When solving an equation with two variables, replace the variables with the values given and then solve the now variable-free equation. (Remember order of operations, PEMDAS, Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, Addition/Subtraction.)
