A cylinder has a radius of 4 cm and a height of 10 cm. Using π ≈ 3.14, what is its volume?
Answer: 502.4 cm³
V = πr²h = 3.14 × 4² × 10 = 3.14 × 16 × 10 = 502.4 cm³.
On a coordinate plane, what is the distance between points (1, 2) and (5, 5)?
Answer: 5 units
Distance = √[(5−1)² + (5−2)²] = √[16 + 9] = √25 = 5 units.
Angles A and B are supplementary. If angle A = 115°, what is angle B?
Answer: 65°
Supplementary angles sum to 180°. Angle B = 180° − 115° = 65°.
A scale drawing of a room uses a scale of 1 inch = 4 feet. If the room appears 6.5 inches long in the drawing, what is the actual length?
Answer: 26 ft
Actual length = drawing length × scale factor = 6.5 inches × 4 ft/inch = 26 feet.
What is the surface area of a cube with side length 5 cm?
Answer: 150 cm²
A cube has 6 equal square faces. SA = 6 × s² = 6 × 5² = 6 × 25 = 150 cm².
Line segment AB is parallel to line segment CD. A transversal crosses both. If the angle at A (alternate interior angle) is 68°, what is the corresponding angle at C?
Answer: 68°
When parallel lines are cut by a transversal, corresponding angles are equal. The corresponding angle at C is also 68°.
