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. Two lines that intersect to form right angles






2. A point at the end of a segment or ray






3. The length of a line segment with endpoints on a circle that also contains the center of the circle






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






5. An exact location in space. undefined zero-dimensional object






6. V = (4/3)(pi)(r^3)






7. A five-sided polygon.






8. All angles are congruent






9. A triangle with three equal sides - a three-sided regular polygon - a triangle with three equal sides - three congruent sides.






10. Point of concurrency of the altitudes of a triangle






11. The square root of a is a number b so that a = b^2.






12. The sum of the lengths of the sides of a polygon.






13. A line segment with one endpoint at the center of a circle and the other endpoint on the circle






14. Two angles that lie between the two parallel lines on opposite sides of the transversal.






15. The only space figure on the game board; it has six equal square faces.






16. Non-parallel - non-intersecting lines






17. A line that intersects a circle in two points






18. An equilateral - equiangular polygon






19. A five-sided polygon






20. An undefined three-dimensional figure; the set of all points






21. No line that contains a side of the polygon contains a point in the interior of the polygon






22. The length of the altitude






23. A four sided polygon






24. A continuous part of a circle.






25. A quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides






26. The point of intersection of the legs of an isosceles triangle






27. 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.






28. Two angles whose sum is 90 degrees






29. A segment that is drawn from the center of a regular polygon perpendicular to a side of the polygon. An apothem of a regular polygon is a perpendicular line segment from its center to one of its sides.






30. A tool for measuring linear distance






31. A closed curve; all the points on the circle are the same distance from the center of the circle.






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






33. The statement formed by negating both the hypothesis and conclusion of a conditional statement






34. A structure that is used to support weight from above.






35. 1/3 X area of base X height






36. An eight-sided polygon






37. An angle having two adjacent sides of the polygon as its sides.






38. The point where more than two line intersect






39. More than two lines that meet at the same point






40. Lines in the same plane that never intersect.






41. An arc that measures less than 180 degrees






42. A chord that contains the center of the circle






43. The set of all points that are the same distance from a given point






44. The point of concurrency of the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle






45. The figure formed by two rays with a common endpoint called the vertex - the space between two lines or planes that intersect - a figure formed by two rays that have the same endpoint.






46. 1/360 of a complete revolution - A unit used to measure distances around a circle. One degree equals 1/360 of a full circle - A unit of angle measure.






47. A piece of a line using A and B as endpoints - part of a line with two endpoints - A part of a line between two endpoints.






48. A three-sided polygon






49. Having the same size and shape






50. The perpendicular segment form a vertx to the line containing the opposite side.
