<p>for the 2 triangles inside a circle, find the choice with the largest area, what’d yall get?
I put the one with the criss-cross diameters</p>

<p>It’s the two numbers with the remainders multiplied together, so the remainders 2x3 = 6 = no remainder anymore.</p>

<p>Btw, can someone explain the route question???
I didn’t see how the top route worked as the arrows weren’t in the correct directions.</p>

<p>craaaap i misread that!!! so absolutely no chance at 800 now, right? :cry:
for -1? because people said this was an especially easy one…</p>

<p>omg, I put down 1. I totally misinterpreted that question, o god, 1/9, so easy :@</p>

<p>Which raw score do you think will convert to anything above or about 710?</p>

<p>biggest triangle area question anyone??? (see post #414)</p>

<p>Criss-cross diameters.</p>

<p>the biggest triangle one was the the one where both sides of the triangle were the radius of the circle.</p>

<p>the biggest triangle one was the the one where both sides of the triangle were the radius of the circle.</p>

<p>so cross-cross right?</p>

<p>That’s what I put. I didn’t try to do any math though, I just looked and picked one. Meant to come back to it later but forgot, lol.</p>

<p>Glad it’s right. Makes sense.</p>

<p>Anyways…I always make stupid mistakes in math, and it has cost me -3 already. I mean…I am pretty good at math after all.
How do you guys avoiding making stupid mistakes in math???</p>

<p>got the prime number wrong :(</p>

<p>suavemulch,</p>

<p>5 is prime. It said there can’t be a prime number between the two numbers.</p>

<p>i usually check over it lol
and i guess you just get lucky and hope for the best</p>

<p>c/d= 2
d/c = 1/2</p>

<p>THEREFORE, d/c + 1/2= 1.</p>

<p>Add that to the list.</p>

<p>EDIT: Oh i just remembered this hard one:</p>

<p>-1 < x < 0 and 0 < y < 1</p>

<p>They asked with statements I, II, III were correct. Can’t remember what i put :(</p>

<p>i think i put I only</p>

<p>I suck at math :(</p>

<p>I think I put I only also</p>

<p>It was definitely I only b/c for the other two you can choose two numbers and get 1 or -1 as an answer. While by multiplication you cannot.</p>

<p>Jersey,</p>

<p>If I can remember, they didn’t ask for what the remainder would be when the product is divided by the number. Yes, the remainder is 0, but didn’t they ask for the product divided into the number instead?</p>
