If angle a = 31° and angle b = 42° what is the length of angle d?
| 134° | |
| 149° | |
| 153° | |
| 159° |
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° - 31° - 42° = 107°
So, d° = 42° + 107° = 149°
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° - 31° = 149°
The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 4, length (l) = 4, and width (w) = 5. What is the surface area?
| 82 | |
| 64 | |
| 112 | |
| 414 |
The surface area of a cube is (2 x length x width) + (2 x width x height) + (2 x length x height):
sa = 2lw + 2wh + 2lh
sa = (2 x 4 x 5) + (2 x 5 x 4) + (2 x 4 x 4)
sa = (40) + (40) + (32)
sa = 112
The formula for the area of a circle is which of the following?
a = π r |
|
a = π d |
|
a = π r2 |
|
a = π d2 |
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.
Which of the following statements about parallel lines with a transversal is not correct?
all acute angles equal each other |
|
all of the angles formed by a transversal are called interior angles |
|
same-side interior angles are complementary and equal each other |
|
angles in the same position on different parallel lines are called corresponding angles |
Parallel lines are lines that share the same slope (steepness) and therefore never intersect. A transversal occurs when a set of parallel lines are crossed by another line. All of the angles formed by a transversal are called interior angles and angles in the same position on different parallel lines equal each other (a° = w°, b° = x°, c° = z°, d° = y°) and are called corresponding angles. Alternate interior angles are equal (a° = z°, b° = y°, c° = w°, d° = x°) and all acute angles (a° = c° = w° = z°) and all obtuse angles (b° = d° = x° = y°) equal each other. Same-side interior angles are supplementary and add up to 180° (e.g. a° + d° = 180°, d° + c° = 180°).
What is the circumference of a circle with a radius of 18?
| 3π | |
| 36π | |
| 5π | |
| 4π |
The formula for circumference is circle diameter x π. Circle diameter is 2 x radius:
c = πd
c = π(2 * r)
c = π(2 * 18)
c = 36π
