• Base
• Height
• Altitude
• Diagonal

What is the formula to calculate the area of a trapezium?

• Area = (a + b) / 2 × h
• Area = (a + b) × h / 2
• Area = a × b × h
• Area = (a - b) × h / 2

What is the formula to calculate the lateral surface area of a cuboid?

• 2(l × w) + 2(l × h) + 2(w × h)
• 2(l × w) + 2(l × h) + h × (2l + 2w)
• l × w + 2(l × h) + 2(w × h)

• 2s²
• 3s²

What is the formula to calculate the surface area of a cylinder?

• 2πrh + 2πr²
• πrh + 2πr²
• πr²h + 2πrh

Which of the following is not a characteristic of a right circular cylinder?

• The circular bases are congruent and parallel
• The line segment joining the centers of the circular bases is perpendicular to the bases
• The cylinder has a curved lateral surface
• The cylinder has a rectangular lateral surface

What is the difference between the perimeter and the circumference of a circle?

• Perimeter is the distance around the circle, circumference is the length of the circle
• Perimeter is the distance around any closed figure, circumference is the distance around a circle
• There is no difference, they both represent the distance around a circle

What is the difference between the area and the surface area of a cube?

• Area is the measure of the region covered by one face, surface area is the sum of the areas of all faces
• Area is the measure of the region covered by the cube, surface area is the measure of the outer covering of the cube
• There is no difference, they both represent the total area of the cube
• Area represents the 2D measurement, surface area represents the 3D measurement of the cube

How can you find the volume of a cuboid?

• Volume = length × width × height
• Volume = length + width + height
• Volume = (length × width) + (length × height) + (width × height)
• Volume = (length × width) / height
