<p>But if you made a straight line down the axis, it became a 45-45-90</p>
<p>It was not a right triangle, but the triangle formed by the angle in question and the x and y axis was. Since it intersected (4,0) and (0,4), the sides of that triangle were 4 each, making it a 45-45-90 right triangle. That angle was 45, and the tangent of 45 is 1.</p>
<p>What answer choice was 1?</p>
<p>For the cross section of the cone, I put the one with the striaght bottom side</p>
<p>What about the question with the expanded park? Doubled area or something like that</p>
<p>F or A was 1</p>
<p>it was definitely one cuz it was like tan45</p>
<p>I put (x + 60)(x + 150)=2(something)</p>
<p>that one was (x+60)(x+150)=2(9000)- i think.</p>
<p>I put 1 too and did sohcahtoa, despite the lack of a right triangle… I made it into one. :D</p>
<p>Alas, I have felt sick all week, and it accumulated during the math section… I almost threw up gahhh. I only practiced for math (and I did so quite heavily), but I feel like I didn’t do very well. I’ll probably get the same score in math as last time, smh</p>
<p>I though the question said double the sides too. And add “d”</p>
<p>So I did something like what @vinny did, but the left side had times 2 for the sides.</p>
<p>the SAT math is not comparable to ACT math</p>
<p>No you just wanted to double the area, so in order to do that you add x to the sides to get 2(9000) I believe</p>
<p>
It said double the area, and add d to each side (meaning that you add the same number to each side).</p>
<p>What was the answer to the water fountain question?</p>
<p>what was the question?</p>
<p>What did you guys put for the (a-b) problem? and the P(x,y) problem?</p>
<p>the (a-b) was that i t had to be less than 1 and the P(x,y) was 16</p>
<p>the p(x,y) was 16 i believe</p>
<p>what was the answer for the cone problem (where it was sliced down the center to make a plane)? It was either a curved bottom side or a triangle.</p>
<p>I put the curved bottom choice A</p>
