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 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.






2. The two sides of a right triangle that form the right angle

10. Objects on the same line






11. A = 1/2bh (b = base - h = height) - The area of a triangle is one half the product of a base and its corresponding height - which is the length of the altitude drawn to the given base - A=
