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. Coplanar - adjacent angles that are supplementary






2. A=?r






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






4. A line segment with one endpoint at the center of a circle and the other endpoint on the circle






5. A segment whose endpoints are point on a circle






6. A polygon with n sides






7. (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






8. An eight-sided polygon






9. The longest side of a right triangle






10. The point of concurrency of the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle






11. Two lines in the same plane that extend infinitely in both directions and never intersect - coplanar lines that do not intersect - lines in a plane that never intersect.






12. A pair of angles which are on the same side of the transversal. With respect to the parallel lines - one must be interior - one must be extirior - and they must be nonadjacent.






13. 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.






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






15. Half of a sphere form through bisection by a plane






16. A line passing through the circumcenter - centroid - and orthocenter of a triangle






17. An undefined three-dimensional figure; the set of all points






18. An angle greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees - An angle less than 90 degrees - An angle less than 90 degrees but more than 0 degrees.






19. (1.) Use a metric ruler. (2.) Measure the length - width - and height (Volume = l x w x h). (3.) Units cubic centimeter (cm3).






20. Part of a line consisting of a path between two endpoints.






21. The angle formed by the legs of an isosceles triangle






22. The length of the altitude






23. An equilateral quadrilateral






24. Seven sided polygon






25. Concave






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






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






28. A triangle with a right angle






29. 15 sided polygon






30. Two angles whose sum is 90 degrees






31. Point of concurrency of the altitudes of a triangle






32. The length of a line segment with endpoints on a circle that also contains the center of the circle






33. A point at the end of a segment or ray






34. Non-convex kite






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






36. A segment that bisects an angle of the triangle and has one endpoint at a vertex of the triangle and the other endpoint at another point on the triangle.






37. One of the rays that makes an angle






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






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






40. A closed curve; all the points on the circle are the same distance from the center of the circle.






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






42. A nine-sided polygon






43. A triangle with three equal sides - a three-sided regular polygon - a triangle with three equal sides - three congruent sides.






44. A point that divides a segment into two congruent segments






45. Six sided polygon






46. Figures that lie on the same plane






47. A polyhedron with two congruent and parallel faces (the bases) and whose lateral faces are parallelograms






48. An angle with 90 degrees






49. Extends infinitely in both directions. A spatial location defined by a real or imaginary unidimensional extent.






50. The point that is the same distance from all the points on the circle
