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






2. Triangles that have the same angles and are the same size. the three angles and three sides of one triangle is equal to the three angles and three sides of the other






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






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






5. The top number of a fraction






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






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






8. 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






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






10. A triangle that contains a 90 degree angle






11. A three sided polygon. the angles of a triangle total 180 degrees






12. The number you get when you add two or more numbers






13. The bottom of a fraction






14. A line connecting one point on a circle with another






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






16. The amount of space inside a two-dimensional (flat) object. measured in square units






17. The point equidistant from the ends of a line






18. Two angles containing a total of 90 degrees






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






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






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






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






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






24. The number you get when you subtract one number from another.






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






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






27. Two lines meeting to form right angles






28. A half-circle






29. The number you get when you multiply two numbers






30. A unit of measure used to describe the size of an angle or part of a circle. a complete circle has 360 degrees






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






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






33. 'in the same order'






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






35. The symbol (v) that tells you to find the square root of a number






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






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






38. A 6-sided polygon






39. With two fractions expressed as an inequality - to multiply the numerator of one fraction times the denominator of the other






40. 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






41. An angle that contains less than 90 degrees






42. A quadrilateral that has four 90 degree angles and four equal sides. also - a number raised to the second power.






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






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






45. Lines in the same plane that never meet






46. Number that are multiplied together. the ones for 6 are 1 - 2 - 3 - and 6.






47. A collection of all the points that are the same distance from one - central point






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






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






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