A trapezoid has bases of 8 and 12 and a height of 5. What is its area?
Answer: 50
Area = ½ × (b₁ + b₂) × h = ½ × (8 + 12) × 5 = ½ × 100 = 50.
What type of triangle has all three sides of equal length?
Answer: Equilateral
An equilateral triangle has all three sides equal and all angles measuring 60°.
What is the area of a circle with diameter 10? (Use π ≈ 3.14)
Answer: 78.5
Radius = 5, Area = πr² = 3.14 × 25 = 78.5.
Two parallel lines are cut by a transversal. Which angle pair is always equal?
Answer: Alternate interior angles
Alternate interior angles are congruent when formed by parallel lines and a transversal.
What is the perimeter of a regular hexagon with side length 6 cm?
Answer: 36 cm
A regular hexagon has 6 equal sides, so perimeter = 6 × 6 = 36 cm.
A cylinder has radius 3 and height 7. What is its volume? (Use π ≈ 3.14)
Answer: 197.82
Volume = πr²h = 3.14 × 9 × 7 = 197.82.
