1

If the base of this triangle is 1 and the height is 3, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
38\(\frac{1}{2}\)
18
66

Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 1 x 3 = \( \frac{3}{2} \) = 1\(\frac{1}{2}\)


2

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of __________ sides.

70% Answer Correctly

equal angle

right angle

parallel

equal length


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


3

If a = c = 6, b = d = 5, what is the area of this rectangle?

80% Answer Correctly
30
40
7
14

Solution

The area of a rectangle is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 6 x 5
a = 30


4

Order the following types of angle from least number of degrees to most number of degrees.

75% Answer Correctly

right, acute, obtuse

right, obtuse, acute

acute, right, obtuse

acute, obtuse, right


Solution

An acute angle measures less than 90°, a right angle measures 90°, and an obtuse angle measures more than 90°.


5

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

47% Answer Correctly

c2 + a2

c2 - a2

c - a

a2 - c2


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