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. A point a the end of a line segment or ray.






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






3. A polygon with n sides






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






5. Not convex






6. Twenty sided polygon






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






8. 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.






9. All elements that are in any of two (or more) sets or figures






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






11. 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.






12. Switches the hypothesis and the conclusion and negates both






13. 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.






14. A quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides

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






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






22. An undefined one-dimensional object with no endpoints






23. The side opposite the vertex angle.






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






25. A tool for measuring linear distance






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






27. A chord that contains the center of the circle






28. The perpendicular segment form a vertx to the line containing the opposite side.






29. Two lines that intersect to form right angles.






30. An exact location in space. undefined zero-dimensional object






31. Two angles whose sides form two pairs of opposite rays






32. The point of concurrency of the angle bisectors of a triangle






33. The amount of surface inside a circle.






34. An eleven-sided polygon






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






36. Coplanar lines that do not intersect






37. 15 sided polygon






38. (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






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






40. The point of concurrency of the medians of a triangle; the center of mass of a triangle






41. P = 4S (S = length of side) - (Square with side length s) Perimeter P = 4s.






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






43. The square root of a is a number b so that a = b^2.






44. A triangle with at least two congruent sides






45. 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.






46. A quadrilateral with two pairs of adjacent - congruent sides






47. 1/3 X area of base X height






48. A line segment perpendicular to the bases - with endpoints on the planes containing the bases.






49. A=?r
