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

77% Answer Correctly

a = π d2

a = π r2

a = π r

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.


2

If angle a = 26° and angle b = 59° what is the length of angle d?

56% Answer Correctly
118°
133°
154°
123°

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° - 26° - 59° = 95°

So, d° = 59° + 95° = 154°

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° - 26° = 154°


3

Solve for a:
-6a + 6 > -7 + 4a

55% Answer Correctly
a > 1\(\frac{3}{10}\)
a > -\(\frac{1}{2}\)
a > -\(\frac{1}{6}\)
a > \(\frac{1}{2}\)

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.

-6a + 6 > -7 + 4a
-6a > -7 + 4a - 6
-6a - 4a > -7 - 6
-10a > -13
a > \( \frac{-13}{-10} \)
a > 1\(\frac{3}{10}\)


4

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of __________ sides.

70% Answer Correctly

equal length

equal angle

parallel

right angle


Solution

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides.


5

If the length of AB equals the length of BD, point B __________ this line segment.

46% Answer Correctly

bisects

midpoints

intersects

trisects


Solution

A line segment is a portion of a line with a measurable length. The midpoint of a line segment is the point exactly halfway between the endpoints. The midpoint bisects (cuts in half) the line segment.
