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






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






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






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






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






6. The number you get when you multiply two numbers






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






8. 'in the same order'






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






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






11. 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






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






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






14. A 5 sided polygon






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






16. 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






17. Two angles containing a total of 90 degrees






18. An integer






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






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






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






22. The top number of a fraction






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






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






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






26. Two angles containing a total of 180 degrees






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






28. One of two equal factors of a number






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






30. A half-circle






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






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






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






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






35. Lines in the same plane that never meet






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






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






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






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






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






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






42. 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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






50. An angle that contains less than 90 degrees
