Sample questions

1. What is a ray?

   1. A line that goes infinitely in both directions
   2. A part of a line that starts at a point and goes infinitely in one direction
   3. A closed figure with three sides
   4. A straight path connecting two points
   Show answer

   Answer: B. A part of a line that starts at a point and goes infinitely in one direction

   A ray is defined as part of a line that has one endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction.

2. How many endpoints does a ray have?

   1. None
   2. One
   3. Two
   4. Infinite
   Show answer

   Answer: B. One

   A ray has one endpoint, from which it extends infinitely in one direction.

3. What is a transversal line?

   1. A line touching two points
   2. A line that intersects two or more lines
   3. A line with two endpoints
   4. A line less than a segment
   Show answer

   Answer: B. A line that intersects two or more lines

   A transversal is a line that intersects two or more other lines at different points.

4. What are skew lines?

   1. Lines that meet at a right angle
   2. Lines that are parallel
   3. Lines that do not intersect and are not parallel
   4. Lines that pass through a point
   Show answer

   Answer: C. Lines that do not intersect and are not parallel

   Skew lines are lines that do not intersect and are not parallel, often existing in different planes.

5. What is the sum of the interior angles of a triangle?

   1. 90 degrees
   2. 180 degrees
   3. 270 degrees
   4. 360 degrees
   Show answer

   Answer: B. 180 degrees

   The sum of the interior angles in any triangle is always equal to 180 degrees.
