The triangle shown has a base of 12 and a height of 3. What is its area?
A30
B16
C36
D18
Explanation
Area = ½ × base × height = ½ × 12 × 3 = 18.
Question 3 of 10
TEKS GEOEasy Diagram
The circle shown has a radius of 11. What is the area of the circle, in terms of π?
A242π
B11π
C121π
D22π
Explanation
Area = πr² = π(11)² = 121π. (Don't confuse with circumference 2πr.)
Question 4 of 10

The function f(x) = (x + 3)² − 1 is graphed in the xy-plane as shown. What is the vertex of this parabola?
A(3, 1)
B(3, -1)
C(-3, -1)
D(-3, 1)
Explanation
In vertex form a(x − h)² + k, the vertex is at (h, k). Here h = -3 and k = -1, so the vertex is (-3, -1). The parabola opens upward.
Question 5 of 10
TEKS GEOMedium Diagram
Triangle ABC is similar to triangle DEF, shown below. Side AB has length 8 and corresponds to side DE of length 40. If side BC has length 7, what is the length of side EF?
A12
B15
C42
D35
Explanation
Similar triangles have proportional sides. Scale factor = DE/AB = 40/8 = 5. So EF = BC × 5 = 7 × 5 = 35.

In the right triangle shown, the hypotenuse has length 52 and one leg has length 20. What is the length of the other leg?
A46
B48
C44
D45
Explanation
By the Pythagorean theorem: b² = c² − a² = 52² − 20² = 2704 − 400 = 2304. So b = √2304 = 48.
Question 7 of 10

A jar contains 25 marbles. 11 of them are red and the rest are blue. If one marble is drawn at random, what is the probability it is red?
A11/25
B12/25
C11/14
D14/25
Explanation
P(red) = favorable / total = 11/25 = 11/25 in simplest form.

If f(x) = 6x² − 6x + 8, what is f(7)?
A8
B254
C260
D266
Explanation
f(7) = 6(7)² + (-6)(7) + 8 = 294 − 42 + 8 = 260.
