SAT Math 1 Vocab

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. The amount of space inside a two-dimensional (flat) object. measured in square units






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






3. 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






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






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






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






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






8. 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






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






10. An integer






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






12. The top number of a fraction






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






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






15. A number or group of numbers represented by a letter or symbol. the value can vary depending on the mathematical relationship defined for it






16. Two angles containing a total of 180 degrees






17. A 6-sided polygon






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






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






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






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






22. An angle that contains less than 90 degrees






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






24. Two angles containing a total of 90 degrees






25. The sum of the lengths of all the sides of a polygon






26. 'in the same order'






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






28. The middle number in a group






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






30. The number you get when you add two or more numbers






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






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






33. A half-circle






34. The amount of space contained in - or occupied by - a solid figure. expressed in in cubic units.






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






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






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






38. Two lines meeting to form right angles






39. A unit of measure used to describe the size of an angle or part of a circle. a complete circle has 360 degrees






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






41. Having all sides equal. an equilateral triangle has three equal sides






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






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






44. Lines in the same plane that never meet






45. In a right triangle - the longest side (the side opposite the right angle)






46. The product of two or more whole numbers. 40 is this of 5 because 5×8=40. therefore 40 is also this of 8






47. A triangle that contains a 90 degree angle






48. A 5 sided polygon






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






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