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






2. A triangle with one obtuse angle






3. All three angles are acute - a triangle whose interior angles are all acute - A triangle with three acute angles.






4. 1/360 of a complete revolution - A unit used to measure distances around a circle. One degree equals 1/360 of a full circle - A unit of angle measure.






5. Having the same size and shape






6. A tool for measuring linear distance






7. A triangle with a right angle






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






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






10. An angle with 90 degrees






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






12. A triangle with no equal sides.






13. Lines in the same plane that never intersect.






14. C = (Pi)d = 2(Pi)r - the size of something as given by the distance around it - the length of the closed curve of a circle - 2pr - Pi






15. A triangle with no two sides congruent






16. A = S^2






17. An arc that measures less than 180 degrees






18. The point where more than two line intersect






19. 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.






20. Six sided polygon






21. Regular quadrilateral






22. Non-convex kite






23. 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.






24. A circle is circumscribed about a polygon if the circle contains all the vertices of the polygon.






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






26. Coplanar - adjacent angles that are supplementary






27. A quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides






28. 15 sided polygon






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






30. A triangle with all acute angles.






31. One-quarter of a complete revolution - a quarter of the circumference of a circle - an angle that measures 90 degrees.






32. Two angles that lie between the two parallel lines on opposite sides of the transversal.






33. Point of concurrency of the altitudes of a triangle






34. A structure that is used to support weight from above.






35. A segment that bisects an angle of the triangle and has one endpoint at a vertex of the triangle and the other endpoint at another point on the triangle.
