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 number you get when you multiply two numbers






2. 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






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






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






5. Triangles that have the same angles and are the same size. the three angles and three sides of one triangle is equal to the three angles and three sides of the other






6. One of two equal factors of a number






7. Lines in the same plane that never meet






8. The top number of a fraction






9. Two angles containing a total of 180 degrees






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






11. 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






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






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






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






15. A 6-sided polygon






16. Two lines meeting to form right angles






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






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






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






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






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






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






23. A half-circle






24. A quadrilateral that has four 90 degree angles






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






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






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






28. The middle number in a group






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






30. Two angles containing a total of 90 degrees






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






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






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






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






35. A quadrilateral whose opposite sides are both parallel and equal in length and whose opposite angles are equal






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






37. One after the other - without skipping. numbers in order.






38. An angle that contains less than 90 degrees






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






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






41. Two triangles with exactly the same three angles. Similar triangles do not have to be the same size.






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






50. The bottom of a fraction
