Sample Questions

1multiple correct

Which of the following formulas are correct for a triangle? (Select all correct answers)

Show answer

Area = ½ × base × height, Perimeter = sum of all three sides, Area = √[s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)] (Heron's formula)

For triangles: Area = ½ × base × height is the basic formula. Perimeter is sum of all sides. Heron's formula gives area when all three sides are known. Option B misses the ½ factor, option E is for rectangles.

2multiple choice

Find the area of a circle with radius 14 cm. (Take π = 22/7)

Show answer

616 cm²

Area of circle = πr² = (22/7) × 14² = (22/7) × 196 = 616 cm². Option A is circumference, option C is r², option D is half the correct answer.

3true false

The area of an equilateral triangle with side 'a' is (√3/4)a².

Show answer

True

This is the standard formula for area of equilateral triangle. It can be derived using the basic area formula with height = (√3/2)a.

4multiple choice

What is the area of a parallelogram with base 15 cm and height 8 cm?

Show answer

120 cm²

Area of parallelogram = base × height = 15 × 8 = 120 cm². Option B is perimeter calculation, option C is half the area, option D is average of base and height.
