Which of the following is not true about both rectangles and squares?

63% Answer Correctly

the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all four sides

the area is length x width

all interior angles are right angles

the lengths of all sides are equal


Solution

A rectangle is a parallelogram containing four right angles. Opposite sides (a = c, b = d) are equal and the perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides (a + b + c + d) or, comonly, 2 x length x width. The area of a rectangle is length x width. A square is a rectangle with four equal length sides. The perimeter of a square is 4 x length of one side (4s) and the area is the length of one side squared (s2).


2

If a = 2, b = 1, c = 7, and d = 1, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
17
11
22
19

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 2 + 1 + 7 + 1
p = 11


3

Breaking apart a quadratic expression into a pair of binomials is called:

74% Answer Correctly

normalizing

deconstructing

squaring

factoring


Solution

To factor a quadratic expression, apply the FOIL (First, Outside, Inside, Last) method in reverse.


4

If side x = 14cm, side y = 11cm, and side z = 10cm what is the perimeter of this triangle?

84% Answer Correctly
35cm
31cm
27cm
36cm

Solution

The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

p = x + y + z
p = 14cm + 11cm + 10cm = 35cm


5

On this circle, line segment AB is the:

70% Answer Correctly

radius

circumference

chord

diameter


Solution

A circle is a figure in which each point around its perimeter is an equal distance from the center. The radius of a circle is the distance between the center and any point along its perimeter. A chord is a line segment that connects any two points along its perimeter. The diameter of a circle is the length of a chord that passes through the center of the circle and equals twice the circle's radius (2r).
