1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 3 and radius (r) = 3. What is the surface area?

48% Answer Correctly
140π
160π
306π
36π

Solution

The surface area of a cylinder is 2πr2 + 2πrh:

sa = 2πr2 + 2πrh
sa = 2π(32) + 2π(3 x 3)
sa = 2π(9) + 2π(9)
sa = (2 x 9)π + (2 x 9)π
sa = 18π + 18π
sa = 36π


2

If side a = 4, side b = 4, what is the length of the hypotenuse of this right triangle?

64% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{32} \)
\( \sqrt{13} \)
\( \sqrt{145} \)
\( \sqrt{90} \)

Solution

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

c2 = a2 + b2
c2 = 42 + 42
c2 = 16 + 16
c2 = 32
c = \( \sqrt{32} \)


3

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

78% Answer Correctly

a = π r

a = π d2

a = π r2

a = π d


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.


4

Solve for y:
-3y - 8 < -7 + 3y

55% Answer Correctly
y < -\(\frac{1}{6}\)
y < -\(\frac{1}{2}\)
y < -1\(\frac{1}{2}\)
y < -\(\frac{2}{9}\)

Solution

To solve this equation, repeatedly do the same thing to both sides of the equation until the variable is isolated on one side of the < sign and the answer on the other.

-3y - 8 < -7 + 3y
-3y < -7 + 3y + 8
-3y - 3y < -7 + 8
-6y < 1
y < \( \frac{1}{-6} \)
y < -\(\frac{1}{6}\)
