Questions and Answers

1.

Name the line that passes through the middle of a circle from one side to the other
- A.
  
  Radius
- B.
  
  Chord
- C.
  
  Diameter
- D.
  
  Sector
Correct Answer
C. Diameter

Explanation
A diameter is a line that passes through the center of a circle and divides it into two equal halves. It connects two points on the circumference of the circle, passing through the middle. Therefore, the diameter is the line that passes through the middle of a circle from one side to the other.

Name this shape.
- A.
  
  Sector
- B.
  
  Semi-circle
- C.
  
  Sphere
Correct Answer
B. Semi-circle

Explanation
A semi-circle is a two-dimensional shape that is formed by cutting a whole circle in half along its diameter. It has a curved boundary and one straight edge. The term "semi" indicates that it is only half of a complete circle. Therefore, the given shape can be correctly identified as a semi-circle.

Circumference = Find the circumference of the circle above. (14cm diameter)
- A.
  
  44cm
- B.
  
  42cm
- C.
  
  56.21cm
Correct Answer
A. 44cm

Explanation
The circumference of a circle can be found by using the formula C = πd, where C is the circumference and d is the diameter. In this case, the diameter is given as 14cm. Plugging this value into the formula, we get C = π(14) = 44cm. Therefore, the correct answer is 44cm.

Correct Answer
B. 12.5cm squared
5.

Find the perimeter. (Answer with a number not a word)

Correct Answer
60cm
60
60 cm

Explanation
The perimeter is the total length of all the sides of a shape. In this case, the given answer options are all the same, which is 60 cm. This means that the perimeter of the shape is 60 cm.

- A.
  
  71 cm²
- B.
  
  85 cm²
- C.
  
  102 cm²
- D.
  
  67 cm²
Correct Answer
A. 71 cm²

100 cm
8.

Find the volume of this square prism. 3 x 3 cm base and 19cm long
- A.
  
  171 cubic cm
- B.
  
  191 cubic cm
- C.
  
  81 cubic cm
Correct Answer
A. 171 cubic cm

Explanation
The volume of a square prism is calculated by multiplying the area of the base (length x width) by the height. In this case, the base has sides of 3 cm, so the area is 3 cm x 3 cm = 9 cm^2. The height or length of the prism is given as 19 cm. Multiplying the area of the base by the height, we get 9 cm^2 x 19 cm = 171 cubic cm. Therefore, the correct answer is 171 cubic cm.

Find the surface area of this triangular prism
- A.
  
  173.1 cm squared
- B.
  
  73.3 cm squared
- C.
  
  28 cm squared x 2
Correct Answer
A. 173.1 cm squared

Explanation
The surface area of a triangular prism can be found by calculating the area of each face and adding them together. Since the given answer is 173.1 cm squared, it suggests that the areas of all the faces of the triangular prism combined equal 173.1 cm squared.
