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 four-sided polygon. the angles total 360 degrees.






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






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






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






5. A 5 sided polygon






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






7. To cut exactly in half. a line that does this to a 70 degree angle divides it into two 35 degree angles






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






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






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






11. The point equidistant from the ends of a line






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






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






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






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






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






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






18. 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






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






20. A triangle that contains a 90 degree angle






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

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






24. One of two equal factors of a number






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






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






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

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






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