Q

If we know the length of two sides of a triangle (P and Q) then the length of the third unknown side (R) must be…?

A

P = known Q= known R = unknown

P-Q< R< P+Q

the unknown side must be larger than the difference of the kown sides, but smaller than their sum

Q

What is a trapezoid? what are its sides called?

A

A quadralateral that has exactly 1 pair of parallel sides

parallel sides = bases

non-parallel sides = legs

18
Q

What are the 4 pythagorean triplets that are common on the exam? What should be noted about them?

A

Each of the sides can be multipled by a constant to produce a new set e.g. 3, 4, 5 could be multiplied by 2 to give 6, 8, and 10

Q

What is the formula for the volume of a cylinder?

A

area of the base x height

23
Q

How do you find the area of a trapezoid?

A

Area = base x height

where the base is the average of the lengths of the two parrallel sides (bases)
