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.

34. A tool for measuring linear distance






35. (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
