1

If angle a = 69° and angle b = 70° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
127°
150°
111°
142°

Solution

An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the two interior angles that are opposite:

d° = b° + c°

To find angle c, remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°:

180° = a° + b° + c°
c° = 180° - a° - b°
c° = 180° - 69° - 70° = 41°

So, d° = 70° + 41° = 111°

A shortcut to get this answer is to remember that angles around a line add up to 180°:

a° + d° = 180°
d° = 180° - a°
d° = 180° - 69° = 111°


2

The formula for volume of a cube in terms of height (h), length (l), and width (w) is which of the following?

68% Answer Correctly

lw x wh + lh

2lw x 2wh + 2lh

h x l x w

h2 x l2 x w2


Solution

A cube is a rectangular solid box with a height (h), length (l), and width (w). The volume is h x l x w and the surface area is 2lw x 2wh + 2lh.


3

The dimensions of this trapezoid are a = 6, b = 4, c = 7, d = 6, and h = 5. What is the area?

51% Answer Correctly
22\(\frac{1}{2}\)
12
13\(\frac{1}{2}\)
25

Solution

The area of a trapezoid is one-half the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides multiplied by the height:

a = ½(b + d)(h)
a = ½(4 + 6)(5)
a = ½(10)(5)
a = ½(50) = \( \frac{50}{2} \)
a = 25


4

If a = c = 9, b = d = 2, and the blue angle = 68°, what is the area of this parallelogram?

66% Answer Correctly
12
18
14
7

Solution

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

a = l x w
a = a x b
a = 9 x 2
a = 18


5

A quadrilateral is a shape with __________ sides.

91% Answer Correctly

2

3

5

4


Solution

A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of the lengths of its four sides.
