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 structure that is used to support weight from above.






2. 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.






3. The set of all points that are the same distance from a given point

30. An eight-sided polygon






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






32. 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).
