ACT Practice Question: Cylinders in Geometry

December 28, 2014 Leave a Comment

 
Here is a practice question on how the volume of a cylinder varies with its height and radius.

The radius of a right circular cylinder is doubled and the height of the cylinder is halved to form a new right circular cylinder. The volume of the new
cylinder is how many times the volume of the original cylinder?

  1. $\quad \dfrac{1}{4}$
  2. $\quad \dfrac{1}{2}$
  3. $\quad 1$
  4. $\quad 2$
  5. $\quad 4$

Choice D

Here is a practice question on how the equation of a circle in the coordinate plane is related to the coordinates of its center and radius.

In the standard $(x, y)$ plane, a circle has a center at $(2, -3)$ and a circumference of $8\pi$. Which of the following is an equation for this circle?

  1. $\quad (x-2)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 16$
  2. $\quad (x+2)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 16$
  3. $\quad (x-2)^2 + (y+3)^2 = 16$
  4. $\quad (x+2)^2 + (y-3)^2 = 64$
  5. $\quad (x-2)^2 + (y+3)^2 = 64$
