THEA Math Test Prep

THEA-IBT Guidelines

THEA-IBT IS FOR NEW STUDENTS ONLY!

THEA-IBT consists of 3 sections: Reading, Writing and Math. You may take in any order.

The Reading section consists of approximately 40 multiple-choice questions matched to about seven reading selections of 300-750 words each.

The Math section consists of approximately 50 multiple-choice questions covering four general areas: fundamental mathematics, algebra, geometry, and problem solving.

The Writing portion consists of 2 subsections: approximately 40 multiple-choice questions and a writing sample. For the writing sample you will be asked to write a 300-600 word essay in response to a prompt. Your essay may NOT be more than 1,000 words. You must complete both before moving on to the next section.

You cannot attempt another section of the THEA until you have completely finished the section on which you are working.

You may work the sections in any order.

If you ' run out' of time to complete the THEA-IBT you must wait 14 days to take the remaining portions. You must state that you ' ran out' of time. DO NOT CLICK END TEST IF YOU RAN OUT OF TIME! This will give you a score for that portion of the test. You will be administered a new and different test and you will have the option to take only the sections that you need.

You can start with which ever section that you choose.

Time Management: You are allowed 4 hours for the ENTIRE test. This includes reading the directions and the writing sample of the writing portion of the test.

Additional information can be found at http://www.thea.nesinc.com/index.asp

To view your scores, go to the counselors 48 hours after test or go to www.thea.starttest.com .

Strategies for effective Test performance before the test:

Good night's sleep and eat breakfast.

Mode: The number that occurs most often. If there are 2 numbers that occur the same amount of times, then the set has 2 modes. If none of the numbers repeat more than once, then the set is said to have no mode.

Example: 5, 9, 99, 3, 2, 8, 73, 1, 4,16

Solution: The set has no mode, none of the numbers in the set repeat.

Example: 20, 43, 46, 43, 49, 43, 49

Solution: The mode is 43.

Variability = 90 - 70 = 20

Cartesian Plane

Cartesian coordinate system or Rectangular Coordinate System – a grid system used to draw graphs.

Coordinate Terms:

The ordered pair (x, y) represents one point on a graph. The ordered pair of numbers is called its 'coordinates'.

Factoring Trinomials where a > 1 Using Trial &Error

You need the first terms to multiply and give the first term of the trinomial and you need the last terms to multiply and give the last term of the trinomial. The middle term is obtained by combining the inner and outer terms. If the last term is positive, the signs will be alike (++ or - -) and they will be the sign of the middle term. If the last term is negative, the signs will be different (+ - or - +).

If the factors you choose for the last term do not work, trade places with them; if that doesn't work, use different factors. If when you combine the inner and outer terms you get the right number but the wrong sign, you swap the signs.

POINT A point identifies a position in space. It is the building block of geometric figures. A point is represented by a dot which is labeled with a capital letter.

LINE A line is made of an infinite number of points and extends indefinitely (infinitely) in both directions. It is labeled by two points on the line.

PLANE A plane is a flat surface that extends infinitely in both directions.

LINE SEGMENT A segment is part of a line which consists of two points on a line and all the points between. The two points are called the ENDPOINTS. It is labeled by its endpoints.

RAY A ray is part of a line which has a fixed point at one end (endpoint) and continues infinitely in the other direction. It is labeled by the endpoint (first) and another point on the ray.

ANGLE An angle is formed when two rays share a common endpoint.

RIGHT ANGLE A right angle measures exactly 90°.

COMPLEMENTARY ANGLES Two angles are complementary when the sum of the measures is 90°. Each angle is called the complement of the other.

SUPPLEMENTARY ANGLES Two angles are supplementary when the sum of their measures is 180°. Each angle is called a supplement of the other.

ADJACENT ANGLES Two angles that have a common vertex and a common side are adjacent.

CONGRUENT means the same size and the same shape. The symbol for congruency is. Two angles that are congruent have the same measure.

VERTICAL ANGLES Two intersecting lines form two pairs of vertical angles. These vertical angle pairs are congruent.

STRAIGHT ANGLE A straight angle measures exactly 180° and forms a straight line.

PERPENDICULAR LINES If two lines intersect to form right angles, then the two lines are perpendicular. The sign for perpendicular is.

PARALLEL LINES Two lines in the same plane that will never intersect are called parallel lines. The symbol for parallel is.

TRANSVERSAL A line that intersects two or more coplanar lines in different points.

ALTERNATE INTERIOR ANGLES

ALTERNATE EXTERIOR ANGLES

CORRESPONDING ANGLES

Congruent triangles Triangles with the same size and the same shape are congruent triangles. If two triangles are congruent, then their corresponding parts (sides and angles) are congruent.

SSS (side-side-side) If three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

ASA (angle-side-angle) If two angles and the side between them in one triangle are congruent to two corresponding angles and the included side of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

SAS (side-angle-side) If two sides and the included angle in one triangle are congruent to the two corresponding sides and included angle of a second triangle, then the triangles are congruent.

SIMILAR TRIANGLES Triangles with the same shape aresimilar.The sign for similarity is ~.

SIMILAR TRIANGLES

AAA (angle/angle/angle) If 3 angles of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding angles of a second triangle, then the two triangles are similar.

SSS (Side/Side/Side) If the three sets of corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, then the two triangles are similar.

Inductive Reasoning:

• The process of drawing conclusion that are based on observations.
• Draw a general conclusion based on items presented in a group.
• Conclusions are based on observation and a fairly small amount of information.
• Example of Inductive Reasoning is determining the sequence of a set of numbers, letter, or shapes.

Deductive Reasoning:

• Conclusions are drawn by using accepted facts stated in the problem.
• To solve a deductive reasoning problem, you must use a step-by-step process, developing new statements that are based on the facts that you have been given in the problem.
• You must be able to prove each new statement you make by using the facts you have been given.
• Each new statement must lead toward one final statement, the conclusion.
• Each statement must be supported by the statements that come before it.
• Example of using deductive reasoning will be putting together a schedule for work.

Read each conclusion and highlight the general statement. Specific information to general is inductive reasoning. General information to Specific is deductive reasoning. Decide whether inductive or deductive reasoning would be used for each conclusion.

Examples:

1. Rodney has $425 and must pay thefollowing bills: $200, $125, $85, and $50. He does not have enough to pay his bills.

If we have general information to specific information we use Deductive reasoning.

Surface 2 network adapter missing. Now you can go to the Device Manager or the Network Connections to re-configure the network. You may also want to check out: • • • • • Way 5. In fact, the “wireless adapter not in the Device Manager or the Network Connections” issue can be readily solved via re-enabling the network-related services.

2. Tina tried to stop her car but her brakes did not work. She tried the brakes again and they still did not work. Her brakes were not going to work until repaired.
