✍️ Sample Police Math Test Questions & Answers

1. A barricade forms an equilateral triangle with each side measuring 11 feet. What is its perimeter?

✓ 33 feet

Perimeter = 3 × 11 = 33 feet since all three sides are equal.

2. A distance is recorded as 3 yards. How many feet is that?

✓ 9 feet

Each yard equals 3 feet, so 3 yards equals 9 feet.

3. A scene tape perimeter is a rectangle 30 ft by 45 ft. How many feet of tape are needed for the perimeter?

✓ 150 ft

Perimeter = 2(30 + 45) = 2(75) = 150 feet.

4. If the side of a square search area is doubled, how does its area change?

✓ It becomes 4 times larger

Area scales with the square of the side, so doubling the side multiplies the area by 4.

5. An officer's average over 3 calls is 6 minutes. What is the total time spent on all calls?

✓ 18 minutes

Average times count equals 6 multiplied by 3, which is 18 minutes.

6. An evidence locker holds 312 items. Officers remove 87 items for trial. How many items remain?

312 - 87 = 225 items remain.
