SAT Math 1 Vocab

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






2. An angle that contains less than 90 degrees






3. A 5 sided polygon






4. The distance from the center of a circle to any point on the circle






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






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






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






8. A section of a circle - also known as a little curved thing






9. A quadrilateral that has four 90 degree angles






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






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






12. A 6-sided polygon






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






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






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






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






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






18. Two angles containing a total of 90 degrees






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






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






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






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






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






24. An integer






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






26. One of two equal factors of a number






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






28. 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






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






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






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






32. 'in the same order'






33. 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






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






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






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






37. The middle number in a group






38. Two lines meeting to form right angles






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






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






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






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






43. A triangle that contains a 90 degree angle






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






45. 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






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






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






48. The bottom of a fraction






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






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