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. 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






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






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






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






5. Area = pr2 (squared)






6. 2 angles that add up to be 180*






7. 2pr= C






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






9. Line segment connecting two non adjacent verities






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






11. The perpendicular bisector of the pre-image and the image






12. A line linking to points






13. A quadrilateral with 2 parallel sides






14. 4 coplanar line segments each connected to form a closed shape Ex: square - kite - rhombus - rectangle - trapezoid - parallelogram etc






15. Circle






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






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






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






19. polygon with 7 sides






20. Lines that intersect at single point






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






22. Triangle that has three equal sides in length






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






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






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






26. Angle measures 90*






27. Polygon with 5 sides






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






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






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






31. Polygon with 6 sides






32. 2 or more lines that cross at the same point.






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






34. Equal in size and shape






35. A polygon with 8 sides






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






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






38. Triangle with 3 different sides in length






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






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






41. Lines that lay on the same plane






42. Area= 1.2 b*h






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






44. Four sided polygon with congruent angles and sides






45. An angle that measures smaller than 90*






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






47. Cut something in half






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






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






50. Two non parallel lines that don't intersect
