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






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






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






4. 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






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






6. Two angles containing a total of 90 degrees






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






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






9. Two angles containing a total of 180 degrees






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






11. A 5 sided polygon






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






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






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






15. An integer






16. The digit all the way on the right of a number


17. A triangle that contains a 90 degree angle






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






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






20. The number you get when you multiply two numbers






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






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






23. The point equidistant from the ends of a line






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






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






26. The bottom of a fraction






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






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






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






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






31. 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






32. Lines in the same plane that never meet






33. A quadrilateral that has four 90 degree angles






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






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






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






37. A 6-sided polygon






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






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






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






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






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






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






44. Two lines meeting to form right angles






45. 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






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






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






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






49. The middle number in a group






50. An angle that contains less than 90 degrees
