Worked practice questions

In a right triangle, if one leg is 9 cm and hypotenuse is 15 cm, the other leg is

  1. 11 cm
  2. 12 cm
  3. 13 cm
  4. 10 cm
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. 12 cm

**Pythagoras:** sqrt(15^2 - 9^2) = sqrt(225 - 81) = sqrt(144) = 12 cm. Classic 9-12-15 triple (3x of 3-4-5).

In an equilateral triangle of side 6 cm, the area is

  1. 6 sqrt(3) cm^2
  2. 9 sqrt(3) cm^2
  3. 12 sqrt(3) cm^2
  4. 18 sqrt(3) cm^2
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. 9 sqrt(3) cm^2

Area = (sqrt(3)/4) x s^2 = (sqrt(3)/4) x 36 = 9 sqrt(3) cm^2.

The angles of a triangle are in the ratio 2 : 3 : 4. The largest angle is

  1. 80 degrees
  2. 90 degrees
  3. 60 degrees
  4. 70 degrees
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. 80 degrees

Sum of parts = 9; each part = 180/9 = 20 degrees. Largest = 4 x 20 = 80 degrees.
