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

77% Answer Correctly

a = π d

a = π r

a = π d2

a = 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.


2

If angle a = 60° and angle b = 32° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
119°
157°
137°
120°

Solution

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite:

d° = b° + c°

To find angle c, remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:

180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 60° - 32° = 88°

So, d° = 32° + 88° = 120°

A shortcut to get this answer is to remember that angles around a line add up to 180°:

a° + d° = 180°
d° = 180° - a°
d° = 180° - 60° = 120°


3

Solve for z:
-8z + 2 = \( \frac{z}{-3} \)

46% Answer Correctly
-1\(\frac{3}{7}\)
-6\(\frac{6}{7}\)
4\(\frac{2}{3}\)
\(\frac{6}{23}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign and the answer on the other.

-8z + 2 = \( \frac{z}{-3} \)
-3 x (-8z + 2) = z
(-3 x -8z) + (-3 x 2) = z
24z - 6 = z
24z - 6 - z = 0
24z - z = 6
23z = 6
z = \( \frac{6}{23} \)
z = \(\frac{6}{23}\)


4

A(n) __________ is to a parallelogram as a square is to a rectangle.

51% Answer Correctly

triangle

rhombus

trapezoid

quadrilateral


Solution

A rhombus is a parallelogram with four equal-length sides. A square is a rectangle with four equal-length sides.


5

What is 3a9 + 9a9?

75% Answer Correctly
12a18
12a9
27a18
-6

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.

3a9 + 9a9 = 12a9
