Exam Review
Notes to the student: This review prepares you for the semester B Honors Geometry Exam. The
exam will cover units 3, 4, and 5 of the Honors Geometry curriculum.
The exam consists of two parts. Part 1 is 15 selected response items each worth 2 points. The
second part is 15 extended response items worth varying numbers of points for a total of 70
points.
A calculator may be used on both parts of the exam.
Many answers will be in terms of or in radical form. You may leave answers in that form or
approximate as a decimal to two places past the decimal point. For most accurate
approximations use the key on your calculator. Do not use 3.14 for . On the next two pages
you will find the formulas that will be available to you in the exam booklet.
FIGURES ARE NOT DRAWN TO SCALE!!!!!

Kelly thinks that the figure might be a square. Remembering her geometry she does the
following.
49.

Kelly first needs to know if the figure is a parallelogram. Show that the figure is a
parallelogram by showing that the slopes of opposite sides are equal.

50.

Kelly now wants to determine if the figure is a rectangle. There are two ways to do this.
a.

Show, by using slopes, that one of the angles is a right angle, and therefore there
are four right angles and the figure is a rectangle.

b.

Show that the diagonals of the parallelogram are congruent, and the figure is a
rectangle.

Now that Kelly knows the figure is a rectangle. If she can show that it is a rhombus then
it must be a square. Again there are two ways to do this.
a.

Show that all four sides are the same length, and therefore the figure is a rhombus.

b.

Show, by using slope computations that the diagonals are perpendicular, and
therefore the figure is a rhombus.

Kelly also remembers a property of parallelograms that the diagonals bisect each other.
Show that this true by determining the midpoint of each diagonal and showing that each
midpoint has the same coordinates.
