Subjects : sat, math
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. Two triangles with exactly the same three angles. Similar triangles do not have to be the same size.






2. The line connecting the vertices of two opposite angles of a quadrilateral.






3. Two angles containing a total of 90 degrees






4. The line perpendicular to the base of a polygon - or the length of that line.






5. A collection of all the points that are the same distance from one - central point






6. A quadrilateral that has four 90 degree angles and four equal sides. also - a number raised to the second power.






7. 'in the same order'






8. The number you get when you subtract one number from another.






9. A triangle that contains a 90 degree angle






10. Two angles sharing one common side and a common vertex






11. A section of a circle - also known as a little curved thing






12. The number left over after you've divided one number into another number






13. To cut exactly in half. a line that does this to a 70 degree angle divides it into two 35 degree angles






14. A four-sided polygon. the angles total 360 degrees.






15. The number you get when you divide one number into another number






16. The point equidistant from the ends of a line






17. Comparison of two or more numbers - expressed in lowest terms






18. A Greek letter used to represent the relationship between the radius of a circle and its circumference and area.






19. The 'steepness' of a line. determined with a fraction: rise/run






20. Formula used to describe the relationship among the lengths of the sides of a right triangle






21. The longest line you can draw from one point in a circle to another (the longest chord). The diameter is two times the length of the radius






22. Including the two extremes. the integers from 1 to 5 inclusive are 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - and 5.






23. An angle whose measure is more than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees






24. A half-circle






25. 'from now' ex. 7 years hence= 7 years from now






26. Formed by two lines that either intersect (cross each other) or start from the same point. the opening is measured in degrees and can be thought of as a fraction of a circle's 360 degrees






27. A 6-sided polygon






28. A line connecting one point on a circle with another






29. A triangle having at least two equal sides and two equal angles






30. Number that are multiplied together. the ones for 6 are 1 - 2 - 3 - and 6.






31. A rectangular solid with six square sides or faces. also - a number raised to the third power






32. A solid whose base and top are identical parallel circles. unless otherwise stated - sides are always perpendicular to bases






33. Two angles containing a total of 180 degrees






34. The mathematical chance of something happening. can be expressed as a fraction - ratio - decimal - or percent.






35. A number whose only positive whole number facotrs are 1 and itself.






36. The symbol (v) that tells you to find the square root of a number






37. Lines in the same plane that never meet






38. A whole number that can be either positive - negative - or zero.






39. The middle number in a group






40. The place where the x axis frosses the y axis. usually referred to as the point (0 -0)






41. An angle that contains less than 90 degrees






42. The 'length' of a circle - measured from one point then all the way back to that point






43. With two fractions expressed as an inequality - to multiply the numerator of one fraction times the denominator of the other






44. The distance from the center of a circle to any point on the circle






45. The number you get when you add a group of numbers and then divide by how many there are. also called an arithmetic mean






46. The point where two lines meet to form part of a polygon






47. A quadrilateral that has four 90 degree angles






48. A three sided polygon. the angles of a triangle total 180 degrees






49. A little number placed towards the upper right of a big number. the coefficient (big number) is multiplied by itself that many times.






50. A 5 sided polygon
