1

If side a = 7, side b = 2, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

63% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{97} \)
\( \sqrt{34} \)
\( \sqrt{80} \)
\( \sqrt{53} \)

Solution

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the hypotenuse squared is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared:

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 72 + 22
c2 = 49 + 4
c2 = 53
c = \( \sqrt{53} \)


2

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 5 and radius (r) = 7. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
245π
100π
54π
125π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(72 x 5)
v = 245π


3

The dimensions of this cube are height (h) = 6, length (l) = 1, and width (w) = 8. What is the volume?

82% Answer Correctly
48
648
8
96

Solution

The volume of a cube is height x length x width:

v = h x l x w
v = 6 x 1 x 8
v = 48


4

If angle a = 68° and angle b = 43° what is the length of angle c?

71% Answer Correctly
110°
93°
69°
91°

Solution

The sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:
180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 68° - 43° = 69°


5

Find the value of c:
8c + z = 1
c + 9z = -1

42% Answer Correctly
\(\frac{3}{4}\)
8
\(\frac{28}{33}\)
\(\frac{10}{71}\)

Solution

You need to find the value of c so solve the first equation in terms of z:

8c + z = 1
z = 1 - 8c

then substitute the result (1 - 8c) into the second equation:

c + 9(1 - 8c) = -1
c + (9 x 1) + (9 x -8c) = -1
c + 9 - 72c = -1
c - 72c = -1 - 9
-71c = -10
c = \( \frac{-10}{-71} \)
c = \(\frac{10}{71}\)
