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. Circle






2. Tiling patterns - are repeating a shape in a pattern in order to completely fill a space. not all shapes will work - hexagons for example will - but octagons wont






3. An angle that measures smaller than 90*






4. Make sure lines are 1/2 the measurement of the angle you are trying to create






5. A triangle with one angle that's greater than 90*






6. Polygon with 6 sides






7. Angle measures 90*






8. A set of two points that lay on a straight line => think of two buddies that are points on one line.






9. Four sided polygon with congruent angles and sides






10. 4 coplanar line segments each connected to form a closed shape Ex: square - kite - rhombus - rectangle - trapezoid - parallelogram etc






11. When a set of lines intersect in such a way that it creates two right angles and one 180* angle






12. A quadrilateral with all four sides equal in length; 4 congruent sides






13. A figure that is formed by two rays sharing a common vertex






14. Cut something in half






15. Pair of nonadjacent angles formed by the intersection of 2 lines.






16. A line linking to points






17. A three sided figure that has internal angles of 90* or less.






18. Two non parallel lines that don't intersect






19. A portion of a line that has a starting point and a direction






20. Area=base*h Volume formula - 1/3 area of the base






21. Lines that lay on the same plane






22. Quadrilateral with the distinct pairs of equal adjacent sides; looks like a kite:)






23. A shape in which all internal angles are less than 180*






24. A pair of complementary angles that add up to 90 or supplementary to equal 180






25. Quadrilateral with both pairs of opposite parallel sides Ex: rectangle - square - rhombus






26. Equal in size and shape






27. If you know the perimeter - you can create a range of what the area would be






28. The perpendicular bisector of the pre-image and the image






29. A triangle with two sides with equal length and one that's not equal.






30. Polygon with 5 sides






31. one of the internal angles is greater than 180* only one angle can be 180* - no more.






32. 4 sides polygon with all equal angles (90*)






33. A polygon with 8 sides






34. This is when two shapes have the SAME angles - and proportional corresponding sides.






35. Two coplanar lines that do not intersect - and have the same slope. Are perpetually the same distance from one another.






36. Remember that similar triangles have proportional corresponding sides create ratios and solves






37. A shape that has one or more internal angles that are greater than 180*






38. Triangle with 3 different sides in length






39. Make sure the parallel lines are 1/2 the distance you want reflected apart






40. 2pr= C






41. Top and bottom are congruent polygons - sides are parallelograms - 1/3area of the base= volume






42. Lines that intersect at single point






43. Have a top point and bottom polygon - sides are triangles






44. Line segment connecting two non adjacent verities






45. 2 or more lines that cross at the same point.






46. 2 angles that add up to be 180*






47. Triangle that has three equal sides in length






48. A quadrilateral with 2 parallel sides






49. Area = pr2 (squared)






50. polygon with 7 sides
