Quant Practice Questions for ACT - 4 | Mathematics for ACT  View Answer

Ans: BC is a diameter (a chord that passes through the center of the circle forming 2 equal arcs of 180 ° each). Angle B is an inscribed angle. The measure of AC is 60° and the measure of BAC is180°. Therefore:

x = 70°
Since y is the measure of an inscribed angle, it measures 1/2 (x) = 35°

Q4: O is the center; ABCDEF is a regular hexagon inscribed in the circle whose sides are eight units long. Find x.

Quant Practice Questions for ACT - 4 | Mathematics for ACT  View Answer

Ans: A regular hexagon is a polygon whose six sides and six angles are congruent. Its central angle measures 60° (360 ÷ 6 = 60°). Triangle AOB is isosceles and ∠OAB = ∠OBA. A regular hexagon contains 6 equilateral triangles. Thus x = 8. An inscribed angle is an angle whose vertex is on the circle and whose sides are chords of the circle. A chord is a line drawn within a circle touching two points on the circumference of the circle.

Q5: O is the center. The measure of ∠A is 62°. Find x.

Quant Practice Questions for ACT - 4 | Mathematics for ACT  View Answer

Ans: To find x, find the number of degrees in the central ∠AOB. OA and OB are radii in the same circle and are, therefore, equal. The angles opposite these equal sides are equal, so m ∠B = 62°

Since central ∠AOB measures 56°, its intercepted arc measures 56°

Q6: What is the measure of the obtuse angle formed by the two hands of a clock at 5 P.M.?

Q7: Find the circumference of a circle if the length of its radius is 5”. (Use π = 3.14).

Quant Practice Questions for ACT - 4 | Mathematics for ACT  View Answer

Ans: Since radius = 5, diameter = 10
C = πd
C = (3.14)(10)
C = 31.4”

Q8: Approximate the circumference of a circle with a radius of 21 inches. Use 22/7 as an approximation for π.

Q10: ∆DEF is a 30°-60°-90° triangle, and EF = 4. Find the measure of DF and DE .

Quant Practice Questions for ACT - 4 | Mathematics for ACT

Quant Practice Questions for ACT - 4 | Mathematics for ACT  View Answer

Ans: DF is the side opposite the 30° angle, so its measure is one-half the hypotenuse. Since EF = 4, DF = 2. DE is the side opposite the 60° angle, so its measure is one-half the hypotenuse times √3 .
