What is the perimeter of the figure?

  • A. 6a + b
  • B. 5a + 5b
  • C. 6a + 4b
  • D. 3a + 5b
  • E. 3a + 5b


Answer : C

Explanation:
To find the perimeter of the figure, find the sum of the lengths of its sides. 2a + a + b + 2a + b + a + 2b = 6a + 4b.


A rectangular dining room has a floor area of 322 square feet. If the length of the room is 23 feet, what is the perimeter?

  • A. 28 feet
  • B. 37 feet
  • C. 45 feet

What is the perimeter of the figure?

  • A. 11x + 5y
  • B. 10x + 5y
  • C. 11x + 4y
  • D. 9x גˆ’ y
  • E. 8x + 3y


Answer : A

The measures of the angles of a triangle are in the ratio 3:2:1. What is the measure of the largest angle of the triangle?

  • A. 65ֲ°
  • B. 70ֲ°
  • C. 72ֲ°
  • D. 80ֲ°
  • E. 90ֲ°


Answer : E

Explanation:
Let x, 2x, and 3x be the measures of the three angles. Then:
x + 2x +3x = 180
6x = 180
x = 180 ֳ· 6 = 30
3x = 3(30) = 90
