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.

3. A line passing through the circumcenter - centroid - and orthocenter of a triangle






4. The point of intersection of the legs of an isosceles triangle






5. Area of a circle x height of cylinder - pi x r*2 x height.

13. A triangle with all acute angles.






14. A part of a line between two endpoints






15. The side opposite the vertex angle.






16. 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).






17. Two lines that intersect to form right angles

22. A line segment with one endpoint at the center of a circle and the other endpoint on the circle






23. Goes through circumcenter - centroid - and orthocenter; circumcenter and orthocenter are its endpoints






24. (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

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






27. No equal sides - a triangle with no two sides of equal length - no congruent sides - A triangle with three sides of different lengths.






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






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