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. One-half of a complete revolution - an angle of 180 degrees - an angle with measure equal to 180 degrees.






2. A triangle with one obtuse angle






3. Figures that lie on the same plane






4. Half of a line






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






6. All sides are congruent






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






8. Swiss mathematician (1707-1783). He is known for his prolific output and the fact that he continued to produce seminal results even after going blind. He invented graph theory with the Seven Bridges of Konigsberg problem and introduced the modern not






9. 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.






10. Two lines in the same plane that extend infinitely in both directions and never intersect - coplanar lines that do not intersect - lines in a plane that never intersect.






11. Shows a location -






12. A circle is circumscribed about a polygon if the circle contains all the vertices of the polygon.






13. The length of the altitude






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