  1. A square has a perimeter of 48 cm. What is its area?

    Answer: 144 cm²

    Each side = 48 ÷ 4 = 12 cm; Area = 12² = 144 cm².

  2. In coordinate geometry, what is the midpoint of the segment connecting (−4, 2) and (6, −8)?

    Answer: (1, −3)

    Midpoint = ((−4+6)/2, (2+(−8))/2) = (2/2, −6/2) = (1, −3).

  3. A cone has a radius of 4 cm and a height of 9 cm. What is its volume? (Use π ≈ 3.14)

    Answer: 150.72 cm³

    Volume of a cone = (1/3)πr²h = (1/3)(3.14)(16)(9) = (1/3)(452.16) = 150.72 cm³.

  4. An angle measures 128°. What is the measure of its complement?

    Answer: Complementary angles cannot be formed

    Complementary angles must sum to 90°, but 128° > 90°, so no complement exists.

  5. A map has a scale of 2 cm : 50 km. Two cities are 7 cm apart on the map. What is the actual distance between them?

    Answer: 175 km

    Each cm represents 25 km, so 7 cm × 25 km/cm = 175 km.

  6. Which of the following figures has exactly one pair of parallel sides?

    Answer: Trapezoid

    A trapezoid has exactly one pair of parallel sides, unlike parallelograms which have two pairs.

  7. A right angle is bisected. What is the measure of each resulting angle?

    Answer: 45°

    A right angle measures 90°; bisecting it creates two equal angles of 90° ÷ 2 = 45° each.
