A circular garden has a diameter of 14 feet. What is the approximate area of the garden? (Use π ≈ 3.14)
Answer: 153.86 sq ft
Area = π × r² = 3.14 × 7² = 3.14 × 49 ≈ 153.86 square feet.
Two angles are supplementary. One angle measures 73°. What is the measure of the other angle?
Answer: 107°
Supplementary angles sum to 180°, so 180° − 73° = 107°.
A rectangular box has a length of 10 cm, width of 4 cm, and height of 5 cm. What is its volume?
Answer: 200 cm³
Volume = length × width × height = 10 × 4 × 5 = 200 cm³.
On a coordinate plane, what is the distance between points (1, 2) and (4, 6)?
Answer: 5
Distance = √[(4−1)² + (6−2)²] = √[9 + 16] = √25 = 5.
A triangle has a base of 8 inches and a height of 11 inches. What is its area?
Answer: 44 sq in
Area of a triangle = ½ × base × height = ½ × 8 × 11 = 44 square inches.
What type of angle measures exactly 90°?
Answer: Right angle
A right angle measures exactly 90°, often indicated by a small square in diagrams.
A cylinder has a radius of 3 cm and a height of 10 cm. What is its approximate volume? (Use π ≈ 3.14)
Answer: 282.6 cm³
Volume = π × r² × h = 3.14 × 9 × 10 = 282.6 cm³.
