Subjects : math, 7th-grade, 8th-grade
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. A quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides






2. A ratio that compares two different types of quantities






3. A polygon with six sides.






4. A drawing of an object that is different in size (usually smaller than the original) but keeps the same proportions






5. Figures that have the same shape but different sizes; their sides are proportional - while their corresponding angles are equal






6. A solid figure that has two congruent - parallel polygons as its bases. Its sides are parallelograms.






7. To make a fraction easier to work with by taking out common factors






8. A comparison of the two values of two numbers






9. The total of two or more numbers being added






10. Three or more line segments in a plane that forms a closed figure. The line segments never cross but meet at their endpoints.






11. A solid figure that has triangles for its sides and a polygon as its base






12. An angle measuring more than zero degrees and less than 90 degrees






13. The inverse of a fraction; when multiplied by the original fraction - it results in a product that equals one
