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. The common endpoint of the rays of an angle






2. Angles of a polygon that share a side.






3. A line segment perpendicular to the base - with one endpoint on the vertex and the other endpoint on the plane containing the base






4. A chord that contains the center of the circle






5. A triangle with 2 equal sides.






6. 10 sided polygon






7. A continuous part of a circle.






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






9. A line that intersects a circle in two points






10. Coplanar lines that do not intersect






11. An arc that measures greater than 180 degrees






12. Twenty sided polygon






13. An undefined one-dimensional object with no endpoints






14. Sides in a polygon that are connected by a vertex






15. A four sided polygon






16. One of the line segments that makes a polygon






17. An equilateral - equiangular polygon






18. The statement formed by negating both the hypothesis and conclusion of a conditional statement






19. Switches the hypothesis and the conclusion and negates both






20. 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.






21. The square root of a is a number b so that a = b^2.






22. The figure formed by two rays with a common endpoint called the vertex - the space between two lines or planes that intersect - a figure formed by two rays that have the same endpoint.






23. A ray is part of a line with one endpoint and extending infi nitely in one direction - (mathematics) a straight line extending from a point - A part of a line - with one endpoint - that continues without end in one direction.






24. Two lines with one common point - Lines that cross at one point - opposite angles are equal (each pair of angles along the same line add to 180 degrees).






25. A line segment that passes through the center of a circle and has endpoints on the circle.






26. Objects on the same line






27. An example that shows a statement to be false






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






29. An arc that measures less than 180 degrees






30. An angle in a circle formed by two chords with a common endpoint






31. 12 sided polygon






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






33. Swiss mathematician (1707-1783). He is known for his prolific output and the fact that he continued to produce seminal results even after going blind. He invented graph theory with the Seven Bridges of Konigsberg problem and introduced the modern not






34. Two lines that intersect to form right angles






35. A polyhedron having a polygonal base and triangular sides with a common vertex






36. 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.






37. A triangle with no equal sides.






38. Any 2D figure with parallel bases (of length a) and height (b) - that has constant width (a) will have area ab.






39. The point of intersection of the legs of an isosceles triangle






40. A five-sided polygon






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






42. 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.






43. Coplanar - adjacent angles that are supplementary






44. Segment that connects any two nonconsecutive vertices of a polygon






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






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






47. An arc that measures 180 degrees






48. The sum of the measures in any triangle is 180 degrees.






49. Shows a location -






50. Two non-collinear rays with a common endpoint.
