  1. Question 1

    A plane figure formed by two rays sharing a common end point is called:

    • Aa triangle
    • Ban angle
    • Ca polygon
    • Da sector
    Show answer

    Answer: B

    An angle is formed by two rays with a common end point.

  2. Question 2

    The common end point of the two rays of an angle is called the:

    • Ainitial side
    • Bterminal side
    • Carc
    • Dvertex
    Show answer

    Answer: D

    The common end point of the rays is the vertex of the angle.

  3. Question 3

    An angle is in standard position if its vertex is at the origin and its initial side lies along the:

    • Apositive x-axis
    • Bnegative x-axis
    • Cpositive y-axis
    • Dnegative y-axis
    Show answer

    Answer: A

    The initial side of a standard position angle lies along the positive x-axis.

  4. Question 4

    An angle is positive if its terminal side is rotated from the initial side:

    • Aclockwise
    • Bupward only
    • Ccounterclockwise
    • Dtoward the y-axis
    Show answer

    Answer: C

    Counterclockwise rotation gives a positive angle.

  5. Question 5

    A negative angle is formed when the terminal side is rotated:

    • Acounterclockwise
    • Bclockwise
    • Cby 0°
    • Dby 360° only
    Show answer

    Answer: B

    Clockwise rotation gives a negative angle.
