INSTRUCTION: Do not write anything on this questionnaire. Select the correct answer for each of the following
questions. Mark only one answer for each for each item by shading the box corresponding to the letter of your
choice on the answer sheet provided.

1. An angle greater than /2 radians and less than radians.
a. Acute Angle b. Obtuse Angle
c. Straight Angle d. Reflex Angle

2. At 12:00 noon ship B is 100 miles east of ship A. If ship B sails
west at 10 mi/hr and ship A sails south at 20 mi/hr, when will the
ships be closest to each other?
a. 1:00 PM b. 2:00 PM
c. 3:00 PM d. 4:00 PM
2 2
2 2
2 2

2 2
z= x +y
z=distance between two ships
since ship B is traveling 10 mi/h, after t hours
x=100-10t. similarly, y=20t. Thus,
z= (100-10t) +(20t)
= 10,000-2000t+100t +400t
= 500t -2000t+10,000
z =500t -2000t+10,000
dz
2z =0=1000t-2000
dt
0=1000t-2000
t=2
therefore at 2:00PM, they will be closest to each other.

14. Ryan has 800 ft of fencing. He wishes to form a rectangular
enclosure and then divide it into three sections by running two
lengths of fence parallel to one side. What should the
dimensions of the enclosure be in order to maximize the
enclosure area?
a. 100 ft, 150 ft b. 50 ft, 100 ft
c. 150ft, 300 ft d. 100 ft, 200 ft

The area of the enclosure is still the product
of its length and width
A=xy
The 800 ft of fencing is to be divided into six pieces,
4 of length x, and 2 of length y.
4x+2y=800
2y=800-4x
y=400-
