302 Responses | Created by youmils03 |

This will test your knowledge of ratio, proportion, and similar polygons. There are 18 questions. 18 is an A+. 17 is an A. 16 is a B+. 15 is a B. 14 is a C+. 13 is a C-. 12 is a D. 11 is a D-. Anything below 11 is not a passing score. WARNING: Those who have not taken Geometry or who are not currently in Geometry should NOT anticipate a high score on this test.
