1

If side x = 10cm, side y = 10cm, and side z = 15cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
35cm
39cm
26cm
16cm

Solution

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

p = x + y + z
p = 10cm + 10cm + 15cm = 35cm


2

If angle a = 40° and angle b = 23° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
145°
140°
113°
119°

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° - 40° - 23° = 117°

So, d° = 23° + 117° = 140°

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° - 40° = 140°


3

A right angle measures:

90% Answer Correctly

180°

90°

45°

360°


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.


4

If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.

45% Answer Correctly

trisects

intersects

midpoints

bisects


Solution

A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.


5

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

62% Answer Correctly
18π
80π
36π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(12 x 1)
v = 1π
