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 polyhedron having a polygonal base and triangular sides with a common vertex






2. The point where more than two line intersect






3. A nine-sided polygon






4. A segment whose endpoints are point on a circle






5. Non-convex kite






6. Switches the hypothesis and the conclusion and negates both






7. 15 sided polygon






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






9. Area of a circle x height of cylinder - pi x r*2 x height.






10. A quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides






11. Shows a location -






12. 1/360 of a complete revolution - A unit used to measure distances around a circle. One degree equals 1/360 of a full circle - A unit of angle measure.






13. The two sides of a right triangle that form the right angle






14. Lines in the same plane that intersect.






15. Two angles that lie between the two parallel lines on opposite sides of the transversal.






16. A ray - with endpoint on the vertex - that divides an angle into two congruent coplanar angles






17. A continuous part of a circle.






18. 12 sided polygon






19. One of the line segments that makes a polygon






20. Six sided polygon






21. A point a the end of a line segment or ray.






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






23. Figures that lie on the same plane






24. Coplanar - adjacent angles that are supplementary






25. (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






26. A solid figure that has a circular base and one vertex. The intersection of a cone with a plane through the vertex - perpendicular to the base will be a traingle.






27. The perpendicular segment form a vertx to the line containing the opposite side.






28. The point of concurrency of the angle bisectors of a triangle






29. A = S^2






30. The only space figure on the game board; it has six equal square faces.






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






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






33. Angles whose measures add to 180 degrees - Two angles whose sum is 180 degrees - Angles whose measure adds up to 180 degrees.






34. A line that intersects a circle in two points






35. Objects on the same line






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






37. A line that intersects a (coplanar) circle at exactly one point






38. The union of line segments with each segment interesecting exactly two others - only at the endpoints






39. A line that touches a curve at only one point.






40. A triangle that has a 90 degree angle.






41. The statement formed by switching the hypothesis and conclusion of a conditional statement






42. The point of concurrency of the medians of a triangle; the center of mass of a triangle






43. Distance around - the size of something as given by the distance around it.






44. The longest side of a right triangle






45. An example that shows a statement to be false






46. A tool for measuring linear distance






47. The common point of the two rays - the point in common of the two rays that form an angle. - the point at which the sides of an angle meet or intersect.






48. A = LW (L = length - W = width).






49. A triangle with no equal sides.






50. Two lines that intersect to form right angles.
