CLEP General Mathematics: Geometry

Subjects : clep, math, geometry
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 part of a line between two endpoints






2. An angle that measures between 0 and 90 degrees.






3. Twenty sided polygon






4. A polygon with n sides






5. A line segment perpendicular to the bases - with endpoints on the planes containing the bases.






6. The sum of the lengths of the sides of a polygon.






7. A triangle with at least two congruent sides






8. A segment from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side






9. A segment that is drawn from the center of a regular polygon perpendicular to a side of the polygon. An apothem of a regular polygon is a perpendicular line segment from its center to one of its sides.






10. All elements that are in any of two (or more) sets or figures






11. (1.) By using a letter or a number inside the angle. Thus - we would name the angle (read 'angle alpha'). (2.) By using the vertex letter only - such as A. (3.) By using three letters - one from each ray - with the vertex letter in the middle. The






12. 10 sided polygon






13. One-quarter of a complete revolution - a quarter of the circumference of a circle - an angle that measures 90 degrees.






14. No line that contains a side of the polygon contains a point in the interior of the polygon






15. A surface generated by rotating a parallel line segment around a fixed line






16. A term used to describe two numbers having the same value






17. Angles of a polygon that share a side.






18. A structure that is used to support weight from above.






19. A statement that can be written in if-then form






20. An angle greater than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees - an angle between 90 and 180 degrees - An angle that measures more than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees.






21. An arc that measures less than 180 degrees






22. A quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides






23. A parallelogram with four equal sides not at right angles to each other.

26. One-half of a complete revolution - an angle of 180 degrees - an angle with measure equal to 180 degrees.






27. A three-sided polygon






28. A = 1/2bh (b = base - h = height) - The area of a triangle is one half the product of a base and its corresponding height - which is the length of the altitude drawn to the given base - A=






29. A = 1/2bh (b = base - h = height)






30. One of the angles is an obtuse angle - a triangle that contains an obtuse interior angle - A triangle where one angle measures over 90 degrees.

32. A statement that contains the phrase 'if and only if'.






33. Having the same size and shape






34. An angle in a circle formed by two radii.






35. A quadrilateral with 2 sets of parallel sides not at right angles to one another.






36. Switches the hypothesis and the conclusion and negates both
