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.

7. A triangle with one obtuse angle






8. In a proportion the numbers diagonally across from each other multiplied together Ex: a/b=c/d - ad and bc






9. A type of graph in which the lengths of bars are used to represent and compare data in categories






10. A two-dimensional pattern that forms a three-dimensional solid when formed
