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. Twenty sided polygon






2. 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.






3. The rays forming the angle - Rays that make up an angle - The two rays that meet at a vertex to create an angle.






4. One of the line segments that makes a polygon






5. A polyhedron with two congruent and parallel faces (the bases) and whose lateral faces are parallelograms






6. Sides in a polygon that are connected by a vertex






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






8. 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.






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






10. A = LW (L = length - W = width).






11. 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.






12. Two lines that intersect to form right angles






13. Having the same size and shape






14. Non-convex kite






15. Coplanar - adjacent angles that are supplementary






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






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






18. A quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides






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






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






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






22. An angle in a circle formed by two radii.






23. A nine-sided polygon






24. A=1/2h(b1+b2) - or

28. An angle greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees - An angle less than 90 degrees - An angle less than 90 degrees but more than 0 degrees.






29. 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






30. An arc that measures less than 180 degrees






31. Two lines that intersect to form right angles.






32. Switches the hypothesis and the conclusion and negates both






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






34. A triangle with a right angle






35. A quadrilateral with 2 sets of parallel sides not at right angles to one another.






36. Angles whose measures add to 90 degrees - two angles whose sum is a right angle - Angles whose measure adds up to 90 degrees.






37. One-quarter of a complete revolution - a quarter of the circumference of a circle - an angle that measures 90 degrees.






38. 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.






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