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. A segment whose endpoints are point on a circle






2. One of the line segments that makes a polygon






3. Coplanar lines that do not intersect






4. A chord that contains the center of the circle

6. Non-convex kite






7. An undefined one-dimensional object with no endpoints






8. The distance around a circle.






9. Shows a location -






10. 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.






11. A four sided polygon






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






13. The square of the hypotenuse c of a right triangle equals the sum of the squares of the other two sides - a and b.






14. 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.

21. A triangle with 2 equal sides.






22. An angle greater than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees - an angle between 90 and 180 degrees - An angle that measures more than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees.






23. All elements that are in common to two (or more) sets or figures






24. An arc that measures greater than 180 degrees






25. A quadrilateral with two pairs of adjacent - congruent sides






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






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






28. (1.) Use a metric ruler. (2.) Measure the length - width - and height (Volume = l x w x h). (3.) Units cubic centimeter (cm3).






29. A line that intersects a (coplanar) circle at exactly one point






30. (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

32. The amount of surface inside a circle.






33. Two lines that intersect to form right angles






34. Seven sided polygon






35. 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.






36. A term used to describe two numbers having the same value






37. The sum of the measures in any triangle is 180 degrees.






38. A five-sided polygon






39. A tool for measuring linear distance






40. An angle in a circle formed by two chords with a common endpoint

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






43. Point of concurrency of the altitudes of a triangle






44. Half of a line






45. 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.






46. A statement that can be written in if-then form






47. 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).
