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. 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.






2. 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.






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






4. A triangle with all acute angles.






5. Regular quadrilateral






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






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






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






9. Non-convex kite






10. An angle between 90 and 180 degrees






11. 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).






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






13. A=?r






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






15. Two angles whose sum is 90 degrees






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






17. One of the angles is an obtuse angle - a triangle that contains an obtuse interior angle - A triangle where one angle measures over 90 degrees.






18. The ratio of a circles circumference to its diameter. (approximately 3.141592653589...






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






20. Segment that connects any two nonconsecutive vertices of a polygon






21. 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.






22. Angles whose measures add to 180 degrees - Two angles whose sum is 180 degrees - Angles whose measure adds up to 180 degrees.






23. A line segment that passes through the center of a circle and has endpoints on the circle.






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






25. Coplanar - adjacent angles that are supplementary






26. A point that divides a segment into two congruent segments






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






28. An equilateral - equiangular polygon






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






30. Part of a line consisting of a path between two endpoints.






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

39. The length of the altitude






40. 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.






41. Lines in the same plane that intersect.






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






43. The angle formed by the legs of an isosceles triangle






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