Subjects : sat, math
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 that has four 90 degree angles and four equal sides. also - a number raised to the second power.






2. A quadrilateral that has four 90 degree angles






3. A 6-sided polygon






4. The number left over after you've divided one number into another number






5. Formula used to describe the relationship among the lengths of the sides of a right triangle






6. The longest line you can draw from one point in a circle to another (the longest chord). The diameter is two times the length of the radius






7. A triangle that contains a 90 degree angle






8. A quadrilateral whose opposite sides are both parallel and equal in length and whose opposite angles are equal






9. Formed by two lines that either intersect (cross each other) or start from the same point. the opening is measured in degrees and can be thought of as a fraction of a circle's 360 degrees






10. Two triangles with exactly the same three angles. Similar triangles do not have to be the same size.






11. The number you get when you add a group of numbers and then divide by how many there are. also called an arithmetic mean






12. The line perpendicular to the base of a polygon - or the length of that line.






13. A four-sided polygon. the angles total 360 degrees.






14. An angle whose measure is more than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees






15. The sum of the lengths of all the sides of a polygon






16. The line connecting the vertices of two opposite angles of a quadrilateral.






17. A Greek letter used to represent the relationship between the radius of a circle and its circumference and area.






18. Including the two extremes. the integers from 1 to 5 inclusive are 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - and 5.






19. An angle that contains less than 90 degrees






20. Two angles containing a total of 180 degrees






21. 'in the same order'






22. An integer






23. A number whose only positive whole number facotrs are 1 and itself.






24. In a right triangle - the longest side (the side opposite the right angle)






25. The middle number in a group






26. A whole numeral. there are 10 of them: 0 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - and 9.






27. A triangle having at least two equal sides and two equal angles






28. An arithmetic or algebraic expression that has some value on the left and some value on the right






29. 'from now' ex. 7 years hence= 7 years from now






30. A rectangular solid with six square sides or faces. also - a number raised to the third power






31. A solid whose base and top are identical parallel circles. unless otherwise stated - sides are always perpendicular to bases






32. A little number placed towards the upper right of a big number. the coefficient (big number) is multiplied by itself that many times.






33. The number you get when you multiply two numbers






34. A whole number that can be either positive - negative - or zero.






35. The 'length' of a circle - measured from one point then all the way back to that point






36. Two angles containing a total of 90 degrees






37. The point equidistant from the ends of a line






38. The place where the x axis frosses the y axis. usually referred to as the point (0 -0)






39. The point where two lines meet to form part of a polygon






40. One after the other - without skipping. numbers in order.






41. Two angles sharing one common side and a common vertex






42. The amount of space contained in - or occupied by - a solid figure. expressed in in cubic units.






43. The mathematical chance of something happening. can be expressed as a fraction - ratio - decimal - or percent.






44. Having all sides equal. an equilateral triangle has three equal sides






45. The number you get when you divide one number into another number






46. The product of two or more whole numbers. 40 is this of 5 because 5×8=40. therefore 40 is also this of 8






47. Comparison of two or more numbers - expressed in lowest terms






48. A half-circle






49. The 'steepness' of a line. determined with a fraction: rise/run






50. A number or group of numbers represented by a letter or symbol. the value can vary depending on the mathematical relationship defined for it
