1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 5 and radius (r) = 1. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
88π
126π
240π
12π

Solution

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

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(12) + 2π(1 x 5)
sa = 2π(1) + 2π(5)
sa = (2 x 1)π + (2 x 5)π
sa = 2π + 10π
sa = 12π


2

When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are __________ (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are __________ (they're equal).

60% Answer Correctly

acute, obtuse

vertical, supplementary

obtuse, acute

supplementary, vertical


Solution

Angles around a line add up to 180°. Angles around a point add up to 360°. When two lines intersect, adjacent angles are supplementary (they add up to 180°) and angles across from either other are vertical (they're equal).


3

If side a = 7, side b = 3, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

64% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{58} \)
\( \sqrt{89} \)
5
\( \sqrt{34} \)

Solution

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 72 + 32
c2 = 49 + 9
c2 = 58
c = \( \sqrt{58} \)


4

A right angle measures:

90% Answer Correctly

90°

360°

180°

45°


Solution

A right angle measures 90 degrees and is the intersection of two perpendicular lines. In diagrams, a right angle is indicated by a small box completing a square with the perpendicular lines.


5

The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 5, b = 9, c = 7, d = 2, and h = 3. What is the area?

51% Answer Correctly
18
16\(\frac{1}{2}\)
8
20

Solution

The area of a trapezoid is one-half the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides multiplied by the height:

a = ½(b + d)(h)
a = ½(9 + 2)(3)
a = ½(11)(3)
a = ½(33) = \( \frac{33}{2} \)
a = 16\(\frac{1}{2}\)
