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. An eight-sided polygon






2. A parallelogram with four equal sides not at right angles to each other.






3. An undefined one-dimensional object with no endpoints






4. An arc that measures less than 180 degrees






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






6. 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.






7. Two lines with one common point - Lines that cross at one point - opposite angles are equal (each pair of angles along the same line add to 180 degrees).






8. A = S^2






9. Half of a line






10. A circle is inscribed in a polygon if the circle is tangent to all the sides of the polygon.






11. A continuous part of a circle.






12. A triangle with 2 equal sides.






13. A series of points that go on and on in opposite directions.






14. The side opposite the vertex angle.






15. The rays forming the angle - Rays that make up an angle - The two rays that meet at a vertex to create an angle.






16. A ray - with endpoint on the vertex - that divides an angle into two congruent coplanar angles






17. All elements that are in any of two (or more) sets or figures






18. The two congruent sides of an isosceles triangle






19. The common point of the two rays - the point in common of the two rays that form an angle. - the point at which the sides of an angle meet or intersect.






20. The longest side of a right triangle






21. Two angles whose sum is 90 degrees






22. 1/3 X area of base X height






23. A three-sided polygon






24. A segment from a vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side

26. The angles opposite the legs of an isosceles triangle.






27. A triangle with no two sides congruent






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






29. A solid figure that has a circular base and one vertex. The intersection of a cone with a plane through the vertex - perpendicular to the base will be a traingle.






30. Goes through circumcenter - centroid - and orthocenter; circumcenter and orthocenter are its endpoints






31. 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.

38. One of the rays that makes an angle






39. A triangle that has a 90 degree angle.






40. A nine-sided polygon






41. Not convex






42. A = 1/2bh (b = base - h = height) - The area of a triangle is one half the product of a base and its corresponding height - which is the length of the altitude drawn to the given base - A=
