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. polygon with 7 sides






2. Cut something in half






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






4. Four sided polygon with congruent angles and sides






5. Lines that lay on the same plane






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






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






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






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






10. Angle measures 90*






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






12. Triangle that has three equal sides in length






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






14. Equal in size and shape






15. Line segment connecting two non adjacent verities






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






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






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






19. A polygon with 8 sides






20. Area= 1.2 b*h






21. An angle that measures smaller than 90*






22. 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






23. Area = pr2 (squared)






24. 2 or more lines that cross at the same point.






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






26. A line linking to points






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






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






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






30. Two non parallel lines that don't intersect






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






32. Polygon with 5 sides






33. Triangle with 3 different sides in length






34. Polygon with 6 sides






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






36. A quadrilateral with 2 parallel sides






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






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






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






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






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






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






43. 2 angles that add up to be 180*






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






45. 2pr= C






46. 4 sides polygon with all equal angles (90*)






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






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






49. Circle






50. 4 coplanar line segments each connected to form a closed shape Ex: square - kite - rhombus - rectangle - trapezoid - parallelogram etc
