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. 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






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






3. The top number of a fraction






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






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






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






7. An integer






8. Two lines meeting to form right angles






9. A quadrilateral that has four 90 degree angles






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






11. The number you get when you add a group of numbers and then divide by how many there are. also called an arithmetic mean






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






13. 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






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






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






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






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






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






19. A 6-sided polygon






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






28. A triangle that contains a 90 degree angle






29. The number you get when you multiply two numbers






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






31. Lines in the same plane that never meet






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






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






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






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






36. The middle number in a group






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






38. An angle that contains less than 90 degrees






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






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






47. A 5 sided polygon






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


49. Two angles containing a total of 90 degrees






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