# MTAP REVIEWER FOR GRADE 8 PART 4

This is the part 4 of free mtap reviewer for grade 8. It is also advisable to review reviewers for grade 7. Check this page to check all available reviewers for grade 8. Most of the topics here is already been discussed in this blog. If you want to know the tutorials. Use the custom search engine on the upper right part and type the keyword. I personally include some hints so that you will know what to find.

1. Evaluate: $67^2-66^2$ (hint : Use sum and difference of two squares factoring)

2. What is the coefficient of $x^3y^5$ in the expansion of $(x+y)^8$? ( Hint: Binomial Theorem)

3. The length of a rectangle is 5 more than twice the width. If the perimeter is  $58cm$. What is the area of the rectangle?

# Sample Math Challenge Problems for Grade 8 – Orals

Disclaimer: This is not the official reviewer for the upcoming Metrobank -Mtap-Dep-Ed Math Challenge problems for division orals. These problems are created to somehow help students to enhance their speed and accuracy and familiarize some questions. We all don’t know what will be the questions. The more  problems we solve is the better math person we are. Have fun with these problems.
