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 quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides






2. The side opposite the vertex angle.






3. A statement that contains the phrase 'if and only if'.






4. 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.






5. Angles of a polygon that share a side.






6. All sides are congruent






7. Coplanar - adjacent angles that are supplementary






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






9. An arc that measures less than 180 degrees






10. Any 2D figure with parallel bases (of length a) and height (b) - that has constant width (a) will have area ab.






11. A line that touches a curve at only one point.






12. 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.






13. An undefined one-dimensional object with no endpoints






14. A=?r

29. One of the line segments that makes a polygon






30. Figures that lie on the same plane






31. 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=






32. Angles whose measures add to 180 degrees - Two angles whose sum is 180 degrees - Angles whose measure adds up to 180 degrees.






33. Two non-collinear rays with a common endpoint.

36. Switches the hypothesis and the conclusion and negates both






37. An angle that measures between 0 and 90 degrees.






38. An angle greater than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees - an angle between 90 and 180 degrees - An angle that measures more than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees.






39. A polygon with n sides






40. Lines in the same plane that never intersect.






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






42. 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.






43. 1/3 X area of base X height






44. Non-parallel - non-intersecting lines
