Building Blocks Of Geometry Quiz! Test - Quiz


What can be said about the building blocks of geometry? Geometry is one of the most renowned forms of mathematics. It is involved with space-related properties to distance,... see moreshape, size, and relative position of items. Since its inception, geometry has been divided into many subcategories that rely on specific methods. Geometry has applications in all forms of science. This quiz will help to shape you as a winner. see less

2. The symbol for perpendicular is «math xmlns=¨https://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML¨»«mo»§#8869;«/mo»«/math».

Explanation

The symbol for perpendicular is a right angle symbol, which looks like a small square placed at the vertex of an upside-down capital letter "T". This symbol is commonly used in geometry to represent two lines or line segments that intersect at a 90-degree angle. Therefore, the given statement is true.

Submit
3. The vertex of angle PDQ is point P.

Explanation

The vertex is point D.

Submit
4. A diagonal is a line segment in a polygon connecting any two nonconsecutive vertices.

Explanation

A diagonal is a line segment that connects two nonconsecutive vertices in a polygon. This means that it does not connect two adjacent vertices. Therefore, the statement that a diagonal is a line segment in a polygon connecting any two nonconsecutive vertices is true.

Submit
5. A scalene triangle is a triangle with no two sides the same length.

Explanation

A scalene triangle is a type of triangle where all three sides have different lengths. This means that no two sides of the triangle are the same length. Therefore, the statement "A scalene triangle is a triangle with no two sides the same length" is true.

Submit
6. "The length of segment PQ" can be written as PQ.

Explanation

The statement is true because the length of segment PQ can indeed be represented as PQ. In geometry, segments are typically labeled using two points, in this case, P and Q. The length of a segment is denoted by the distance between these two points, which can be represented as PQ.

Submit
7. "The ray through point P from point Q" is written in symbolic for as «math xmlns=¨https://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML¨»«mover accent=¨true¨»«mrow»«mi»P«/mi»«mi»Q«/mi»«/mrow»«mo»§#8594;«/mo»«/mover»«/math».

Explanation

Vertical angles are formed when two lines intersect. In this case, the question does not provide any information about lines intersecting. Therefore, we cannot determine if the angles are vertical or not. Hence, the correct answer is False.

Submit
9. If the sum of the measures of two angles is «math xmlns=¨https://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML¨»«msup»«mn»180«/mn»«mi»o«/mi»«/msup»«/math», then the two angles are complementary.

Explanation

They are supplementary.
