Problem #0841 UK GCSE

Problem 1 Geometry — Properties

A photo 4 cm by 6 cm is enlarged by scale factor 3. Its new size is:

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. 12 cm by 18 cm✓ correct
  2. B. 7 cm by 9 cm
  3. C. 4 cm by 18 cm
  4. D. 12 cm by 6 cm

4×3=12 and 6×3=18, so 12 cm by 18 cm.

Problem #0830 UK GCSE

Problem 2 Geometry — Properties

Two angles lie on a straight line. One is 110. The other is:

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. 70✓ correct
  2. B. 250
  3. C. 90
  4. D. 110

180110=70.

Problem #0833 UK GCSE

Problem 3 Geometry — Properties

Which transformation always gives an image congruent to the original?

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. enlargement with scale factor 2
  2. B. reflection✓ correct
  3. C. enlargement with scale factor 12
  4. D. one-way stretch

A reflection keeps size and shape unchanged, so the image is congruent. Enlargements with scale factor 1 change the size.

Problem #0836 UK GCSE

Problem 4 Geometry — Properties

The interior angles of a triangle add up to:

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. 180✓ correct
  2. B. 360
  3. C. 90
  4. D. 540

The interior angles of a triangle add up to 180.

Problem #0840 UK GCSE

Problem 5 Geometry — Properties

Two shapes are similar if they have:

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. the same shape, with lengths in the same ratio✓ correct
  2. B. the same size
  3. C. equal areas
  4. D. no fixed relationship

Similar shapes are the same shape with all lengths in the same ratio (a scale factor).

Problem #0837 UK GCSE

Problem 6 Geometry — Properties

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. 360✓ correct
  2. B. 180
  3. C. 540
  4. D. 720

2×180=360.

Problem #0829 UK GCSE

  2. B. 360✓ correct
  3. C. 90
  4. D. 720

Angles around a point add up to 360.

Problem #0838 UK GCSE

Problem 8 Geometry — Properties

Each interior angle of an equilateral triangle is:

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. 60✓ correct
  2. B. 90
  3. C. 180
  4. D. 45

180÷3=60.

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. 3✓ correct
  2. B. 13
  3. C. 10
  4. D. 75

15÷5=3.

Problem #0843 UK GCSE

A rectangle 2 cm by 3 cm is similar to a larger rectangle whose shorter side is 8 cm. Its longer side is:

Show answer & worked solution
  1. A. 12 cm✓ correct
  2. B. 9 cm
  3. C. 24 cm
  4. D. 6 cm

Scale factor =8÷2=4; longer side =3×4=12 cm.
