1

If angle a = 47° and angle b = 52° what is the length of angle c?

70% Answer Correctly
83°
81°
78°
115°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 47° - 52° = 81°


2

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

47% Answer Correctly

c2 + a2

c2 - a2

a2 - c2

c - a


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, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)


3

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

70% Answer Correctly

radius

circumference

chord

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).


4

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

52% Answer Correctly

4π r2

π r2h2

π r2h

2(π r2) + 2π rh


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.


5

Simplify 7a x 3b.

85% Answer Correctly
21\( \frac{b}{a} \)
21ab
21\( \frac{a}{b} \)
21a2b2

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.

7a x 3b = (7 x 3) (a x b) = 21ab
