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 shape that has one or more internal angles that are greater than 180*






2. Circle






3. A portion of a line that has a starting point and a direction






4. A line linking to points






5. A quadrilateral with all four sides equal in length; 4 congruent sides






6. A quadrilateral with 2 parallel sides






7. Triangle that has three equal sides in length






8. 4 coplanar line segments each connected to form a closed shape Ex: square - kite - rhombus - rectangle - trapezoid - parallelogram etc






9. A pair of complementary angles that add up to 90 or supplementary to equal 180






10. A shape in which all internal angles are less than 180*






11. A figure that is formed by two rays sharing a common vertex






12. Equal in size and shape






13. Angle measures 90*






14. A three sided figure that has internal angles of 90* or less.






15. Lines that intersect at single point






16. Tiling patterns - are repeating a shape in a pattern in order to completely fill a space. not all shapes will work - hexagons for example will - but octagons wont






17. Pair of nonadjacent angles formed by the intersection of 2 lines.






18. Line segment connecting two non adjacent verities






19. Have a top point and bottom polygon - sides are triangles






20. A polygon with 8 sides






21. A triangle with one angle that's greater than 90*






22. Polygon with 6 sides






23. Area=base*h Volume formula - 1/3 area of the base






24. Lines that lay on the same plane






25. Remember that similar triangles have proportional corresponding sides create ratios and solves






26. polygon with 7 sides






27. Four sided polygon with congruent angles and sides






28. This is when two shapes have the SAME angles - and proportional corresponding sides.






29. A set of two points that lay on a straight line => think of two buddies that are points on one line.






30. Two non parallel lines that don't intersect






31. Polygon with 5 sides






32. A triangle with two sides with equal length and one that's not equal.






33. When a set of lines intersect in such a way that it creates two right angles and one 180* angle






34. Area = pr2 (squared)






35. one of the internal angles is greater than 180* only one angle can be 180* - no more.






36. Quadrilateral with the distinct pairs of equal adjacent sides; looks like a kite:)






37. If you know the perimeter - you can create a range of what the area would be






38. Make sure lines are 1/2 the measurement of the angle you are trying to create






39. Make sure the parallel lines are 1/2 the distance you want reflected apart






40. Cut something in half






41. Triangle with 3 different sides in length






42. 2 or more lines that cross at the same point.






43. Two coplanar lines that do not intersect - and have the same slope. Are perpetually the same distance from one another.






44. 2 angles that add up to be 180*






45. 2pr= C






46. Top and bottom are congruent polygons - sides are parallelograms - 1/3area of the base= volume






47. Area= 1.2 b*h






48. 4 sides polygon with all equal angles (90*)






49. An angle that measures smaller than 90*






50. Quadrilateral with both pairs of opposite parallel sides Ex: rectangle - square - rhombus
