1

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

24% Answer Correctly

c = π r

c = π d

c = π d2

c = 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 the area of this square is 1, what is the length of one of the diagonals?

68% Answer Correctly
3\( \sqrt{2} \)
7\( \sqrt{2} \)
5\( \sqrt{2} \)
\( \sqrt{2} \)

Solution

To find the diagonal we need to know the length of one of the square's sides. We know the area and the area of a square is the length of one side squared:

a = s2

so the length of one side of the square is:

s = \( \sqrt{a} \) = \( \sqrt{1} \) = 1

The Pythagorean theorem defines the square of the hypotenuse (diagonal) of a triangle with a right angle as the sum of the squares of the other two sides:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 12 + 12
c2 = 2
c = \( \sqrt{2} \)


3

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 4 and radius (r) = 4. What is the volume?

63% Answer Correctly
384π
49π
441π
64π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(42 x 4)
v = 64π


4

The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 6, b = 4, c = 9, d = 6, and h = 4. What is the area?

51% Answer Correctly
20
12
18
28

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(4 + 6)(4)
a = ½(10)(4)
a = ½(40) = \( \frac{40}{2} \)
a = 20


5

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

46% Answer Correctly

midpoints

bisects

intersects

trisects


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.
