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

78% Answer Correctly

a = π r

a = π d

a = π d2

a = 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

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

68% Answer Correctly

lw x wh + lh

h2 x l2 x w2

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

h x l x w


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.


3

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 6, length (l) = 5, and width (w) = 1. What is the surface area?

51% Answer Correctly
162
82
70
62

Solution

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 5 x 1) + (2 x 1 x 6) + (2 x 5 x 6)
sa = (10) + (12) + (60)
sa = 82


4

Which of the following statements about a parallelogram is not true?

50% Answer Correctly

the area of a parallelogram is base x height

opposite sides and adjacent angles are equal

the perimeter of a parallelogram is the sum of the lengths of all sides

a parallelogram is a quadrilateral


Solution

A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two sets of parallel sides. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) and angles (red = red, blue = blue) are equal. The area of a parallelogram is base x height and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d).


5

What is the area of a circle with a radius of 4?

70% Answer Correctly
49π
16π

Solution

The formula for area is πr2:

a = πr2
a = π(42)
a = 16π
