1

The dimensions of this cylinder are height (h) = 8 and radius (r) = 3. What is the volume?

62% Answer Correctly
28π
72π
81π

Solution

The volume of a cylinder is πr2h:

v = πr2h
v = π(32 x 8)
v = 72π


2

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

77% Answer Correctly

a = π d2

a = π r2

a = π d

a = π r


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.


3

Simplify (2a)(6ab) - (7a2)(4b).

62% Answer Correctly
40ab2
88ab2
88a2b
-16a2b

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.

(2a)(6ab) - (7a2)(4b)
(2 x 6)(a x a x b) - (7 x 4)(a2 x b)
(12)(a1+1 x b) - (28)(a2b)
12a2b - 28a2b
-16a2b


4

If a = 3, b = 8, c = 5, and d = 5, what is the perimeter of this quadrilateral?

88% Answer Correctly
25
17
21
15

Solution

Perimeter is equal to the sum of the four sides:

p = a + b + c + d
p = 3 + 8 + 5 + 5
p = 21


5

For this diagram, the Pythagorean theorem states that b2 = ?

47% Answer Correctly

c - a

c2 - a2

c2 + a2

a2 - c2


Solution

The Pythagorean theorem defines the relationship between the side lengths of a right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse squared (c2) is equal to the sum of the two perpendicular sides squared (a2 + b2): c2 = a2 + b2 or, solved for c, \(c = \sqrt{a + b}\)
