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






3. One of the line segments that makes a polygon






4. An equilateral quadrilateral






5. An angle between 90 and 180 degrees






6. A triangle that has a 90 degree angle.






7. The sum of the lengths of the sides of a polygon.






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






9. A surface generated by rotating a parallel line segment around a fixed line






10. The only space figure on the game board; it has six equal square faces.






11. 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.






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

18. The point that is the same distance from all the points on the circle






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






20. 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






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






22. The common point of the two rays - the point in common of the two rays that form an angle. - the point at which the sides of an angle meet or intersect.

24. An undefined three-dimensional figure; the set of all points






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






26. 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.






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






28. In a polygon two vertices that are endpoints of a side






29. Lines in the same plane that intersect.






30. A line segment perpendicular to the base - with one endpoint on the vertex and the other endpoint on the plane containing the base

35. One-half of a complete revolution - an angle of 180 degrees - an angle with measure equal to 180 degrees.






36. One of the angles is a right angle - a triangle with one right angle - One angle in the triangle measures exactly 90 degrees.






37. Planes that do not intersect






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.
