1

If the base of this triangle is 2 and the height is 6, what is the area?

58% Answer Correctly
35
40
45
6
Solution

The area of a triangle is equal to ½ base x height:

a = ½bh
a = ½ x 2 x 6 = \( \frac{12}{2} \) = 6

2

Simplify 4a x 6b.

85% Answer Correctly
24\( \frac{b}{a} \)
24a2b2
10ab
24ab
Solution

To multiply monomials, multiply the coefficients (the numbers that come before the variables) of each term, add the exponents of like variables, and multiply the different variables together.

4a x 6b = (4 x 6) (a x b) = 24ab

3

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

63% Answer Correctly
\( \sqrt{45} \)
\( \sqrt{68} \)
\( \sqrt{29} \)
\( \sqrt{53} \)
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 = \( \sqrt{53} \)

4

If a = c = 7, b = d = 9, what is the area of this rectangle?

79% Answer Correctly
36
45
63
12
Solution

The area of a rectangle is equal to its length x width:

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 7 x 9
a = 63

5

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. Which of the following is not a part of the FOIL method?

83% Answer Correctly

Inside

Last

Odd

First
Solution

To multiply binomials, use the FOIL method. FOIL stands for First, Outside, Inside, Last and refers to the position of each term in the parentheses.
