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

78% Answer Correctly

a = π d2

a = π r2

a = π r

a = π d


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.

What is 7a + 5a?

81% Answer Correctly
35a2
12
12a
12a2

Solution

To combine like terms, add or subtract the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of terms that have the same variable raised to the same exponent.

7a + 5a = 12a

This diagram represents two parallel lines with a transversal. If a° = 35, what is the value of y°?

73% Answer Correctly
24
153
156
145

Solution

For parallel lines with a transversal, the following relationships apply:

  • angles in the same position on different parallel lines equal each other (a° = w°, b° = x°, c° = z°, d° = y°)
  • alternate interior angles are equal (a° = z°, b° = y°, c° = w°, d° = x°)
  • all acute angles (a° = c° = w° = z°) and all obtuse angles (b° = d° = x° = y°) equal each other
  • same-side interior angles are supplementary and add up to 180° (e.g. a° + d° = 180°, d° + c° = 180°)

Applying these relationships starting with a° = 35, the value of y° is 145.

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 1 and radius (r) = 1. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
182π
144π
208π

Solution

The surface area of a cylinder is 2πr2 + 2πrh:

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(12) + 2π(1 x 1)
sa = 2π(1) + 2π(1)
sa = (2 x 1)π + (2 x 1)π
sa = 2π + 2π
sa = 4π

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

71% Answer Correctly

diameter

circumference

chord

radius


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).
