1

A cylinder with a radius (r) and a height (h) has a surface area of:

54% Answer Correctly

4π r2

2(π r2) + 2π rh

π r2h

π r2h2


Solution

A cylinder is a solid figure with straight parallel sides and a circular or oval cross section with a radius (r) and a height (h). The volume of a cylinder is π r2h and the surface area is 2(π r2) + 2π rh.


2

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

72% 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).


3

Which of the following statements about math operations is incorrect?

71% Answer Correctly

all of these statements are correct

you can add monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent

you can subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent

you can multiply monomials that have different variables and different exponents


Solution

You can only add or subtract monomials that have the same variable and the same exponent. For example, 2a + 4a = 6a and 4a2 - a2 = 3a2 but 2a + 4b and 7a - 3b cannot be combined. However, you can multiply and divide monomials with unlike terms. For example, 2a x 6b = 12ab.


4

If side x = 14cm, side y = 15cm, and side z = 14cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

85% Answer Correctly
43cm
44cm
31cm
34cm

Solution

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 14cm + 15cm + 14cm = 43cm


5

Simplify 9a x 9b.

86% Answer Correctly
18ab
81\( \frac{a}{b} \)
81ab
81\( \frac{b}{a} \)

Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

9a x 9b = (9 x 9) (a x b) = 81ab
