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. The side opposite the vertex angle.






2. One of the angles is a right angle - a triangle with one right angle - One angle in the triangle measures exactly 90 degrees.

13. A ray is part of a line with one endpoint and extending infi nitely in one direction - (mathematics) a straight line extending from a point - A part of a line - with one endpoint - that continues without end in one direction.






14. 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






15. Two angles whose sum is 180 degrees

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






25. A four sided polygon






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






27. An equilateral - equiangular polygon






28. (1.) By using a letter or a number inside the angle. Thus - we would name the angle (read 'angle alpha'). (2.) By using the vertex letter only - such as A. (3.) By using three letters - one from each ray - with the vertex letter in the middle. The






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






30. A line that touches a curve at only one point.

38. An undefined one-dimensional object with no endpoints






39. An arc that measures 180 degrees






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






41. The statement formed by switching the hypothesis and conclusion of a conditional statement






42. A point a the end of a line segment or ray.






43. 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.






44. 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.






45. A point that divides a line segment into two equal parts.






46. Distance around - the size of something as given by the distance around it.
