21

<p>The writing was experimental right?
For math what did people get for the intersection between sphere and plane?</p>

22

<p>what was the purpose of comparing the sharks and the other animal to seahorses? i said that theyre subtle and affecting</p>

23

<p>No I only had 2 writing, I put more than 4 for intersection</p>

24

<p>Same for subtle and affecting
I had 3 writing</p>

25

<p>the plane and sphere one i put 2</p>

26

<p>Yeah, the plane and sphere one is two I think.</p>

27

<p>^
I put “more than four” but now that I think about it I think the correct answer was two. I think they wanted radii perpendicular to the plane itself and I thought they meant the lines that marked the edge of the plane.</p>

28

<p>ugh now I’m doubting myself :x</p>

29

<p>I should’ve omitted the plane question… Had no idea what it was</p>

30

<p>for the architecture one, one question was like what was the purpose of saying something like to us are false allusions? i was down to open to interpretation or self determined</p>

31

<p>^
I had open to interpretation as well. </p>

<p>Planes don’t really have edges, so it’s really an infinite plane cutting through the sphere. So the perpendicular diameter (2 radii) is a line drawn down through the top of the sphere. I can’t believe I didn’t see that.</p>

<p>So I misquoted somebody in my essay.
It’s not anything particularly famous (I put Thoreau said it but it was actually Emerson) so I don’t know if they’ll notice but if they did could they take points off?</p>

32

<p>Intersecting plane and sphere-- I put two radii.</p>

<p>Any idea on the one with the rhombus inscribed in two circles asking you to find the length of the shaded arc? I chose 16pi, but I couldnt solve it to check.</p>

<p>Anyone get 1500 for one of the grid-ins?</p>

33

<p>Omitted rhombus question, and I did get 1500 for one I think.</p>

34

<p>yeah, 16pi and 1500 seems familiar.</p>

35

<p>the answer was 16pi 100% sure</p>

36

<p>I said open for interpretation. I was also debating between the self determination one :/</p>

37

<p>I said interpretation too</p>

38

<p>I omitted the rhombus also and yea I got a 1500 for the grid-in. </p>

<p>The architecture and Cold War passages were the hardest. </p>

<p>I only had 2 writing sections. I had 4 CR’s though…</p>

39

<p>Can someone explain the plane question? I’m stupid</p>

40

<p>I fear that the math section I think I did best in was an experimental :&lt;/p>
