Free Geometry MCQs with Answers

222 Geometry MCQs from Mathematics, each with the correct answer and a written explanation of why it is correct. Free and unlimited, with no account needed.

Geometry examines points, lines, angles, triangles, polygons, circles, and three-dimensional figures through properties, theorems, and formulas. Questions connect angle relationships and triangle rules with calculations of perimeter, area, surface area, and volume, so area must not be confused with the space enclosed by a solid.

  • A. 14.64cm
  • B. 16.36m
  • C. 17.60m
  • D. 18.40m

Explanation: For a circle, A = pi r², so r² = 24.64 m² ÷ (22/7) = 7.84 m² and r = 2.8 m. Therefore circumference = 2 × 22/7 × 2.8 m = 17.6 m.

Correct answer: 17.60m
  • A. 110m
  • B. 112m
  • C. 120cm
  • D. 135m

Explanation: For a square, diagonal² = 2 × area, so diagonal² = 2 × 6050 m² = 12100 m². Taking the square root gives a diagonal of 110 m.

Correct answer: 110m
  • A. 25%
  • B. 40.5%
  • C. 55%
  • D. 56.25%

Explanation: If the original side is s, the new side is 1.25s. Area changes by the square of this factor: (1.25)² = 1.5625, so the increase is 0.5625 ×…

Correct answer: 56.25%
  • A. 125cm, 35cm
  • B. 126cm,32cm
  • C. 132cm,26cm
  • D. 135cm,25cm

Explanation: The area of a rhombus is half the product of its diagonals, so their product must be 2 × 2016 cm² = 4032 cm².

Correct answer: 126cm,32cm
  • A. 2R cm2
  • B. R2 cm2
  • C. 1/2 R2 cm2
  • D. 2 R2 cm2

Explanation: The largest triangle uses the semicircle's diameter as its base, 2R cm, and reaches the arc at height R cm.

Correct answer: R2 cm2
  • A. No change
  • B. 8%decrease
  • C. 16% Decrease
  • D. 16%increases

Explanation: Triangle area is 1/2 × base × height. The new area factor is 1.40 × 0.60 = 0.84, so the area becomes 84% of its original value and…

Correct answer: 16% Decrease
  • A. 88cm2
  • B. 154cm2
  • C. 616cm2
  • D. 1250cm2

Explanation: The rectangle's perimeter is 2(18 cm + 26 cm) = 88 cm, so the circle's circumference is also 88 cm.

Correct answer: 616cm2
  • A. 5:4
  • B. 9:4
  • C. 4:5
  • D. 4:9Fun & Trivia

Explanation: Increasing each side by 50% makes the new side 1.5 times the original side.

Correct answer: 9:4
  • A. 30m
  • B. 40m
  • C. 50m
  • D. 60m

Explanation: The square has perimeter 160 m, so its side is 160 m ÷ 4 = 40 m and its area is 1600 square metres.

Correct answer: 50m
  • A. 8cm
  • B. 8√2cm
  • C. 16cm
  • D. 4√2cm

Explanation: For a square, diagonal² = 2 x area. The first diagonal is 4√2 cm, so its area is (4√2 cm)² ÷ 2 = 16 square centimetres.

Correct answer: 8cm
  • A. 10m
  • B. 14.14m
  • C. 20m
  • D. 25m

Explanation: A square with area 100 square metres has side √100 m = 10 m. The longest straight bamboo that fits inside it is its diagonal, which is…

Correct answer: 14.14m
  • A. 14m
  • B. 18m
  • C. 4m
  • D. None of these

Explanation: Let the breadth be b metres and the length be 3b metres. Since 3b² = 12 square metres, b² = 4 square metres and b = 2 m, so the length is…

Correct answer: None of these
  • A. 160m2
  • B. 180m2
  • C. 200m2
  • D. 220m2

Explanation: Let the breadth be b metres and the length be 2b metres. From 2(l + b) = 60 m, we get 2(3b) = 60 m, so b = 10 m and l = 20 m.

Correct answer: 200m2
  • A. 295m2
  • B. 299m2
  • C. 300m2
  • D. 375m2

Explanation: The field area is 25 m x 15 m = 375 square metres. The two central passages cover 25 m x 2 m + 15 m x 2 m - 2 m x 2 m = 76 square metres…

Correct answer: 299m2
  • A. 216
  • B. 192
  • C. 108
  • D. 256

Explanation: Convert the dimensions to centimetres: 12.96 m = 1296 cm and 3.84 m = 384 cm.

Correct answer: 216
  • A. 485
  • B. 431
  • C. 391
  • D. 381

Explanation: Convert the dimensions to centimetres: 4 m 37 cm = 437 cm and 3 m 23 cm = 323 cm.
