June 2009 SAT Math

<p>Hey the one with b+h=180, b+a=180…</p>

<p>It was II and III rigth?</p>

<p>there is a larger triangle to the left that you can visualize with angles 30, and 50</p>

<p>30+50=80</p>

<p>180-80=100</p>

<p>its a straight line in the middle of the picture on the bottom line
and half of angle A is 30
angle c is 50
so that angle is 100 because they all form a smaller triangle</p>

<p>i solved it differently. Ruthless based o your diagram can we assume that the angle x equals the one that is next to it going in a counterclockwise direction? if that assumption is valid then the answer is indeed 60</p>

<p>How did you get the 100 and the 80? I knew how to do this on the test, but I’m so wiped out now o.O</p>

<p>Signo, I have no idea, I think -1 was D though.</p>

<p>i ssee it know. sh%$^$ i missed one</p>

<p>prism it is -1</p>

<p>Was it II and III for the parallel lines ones?</p>

<p>the b+a=180, b+h=180</p>

<p>Can anyone remind me of the one with II and III as answer choices, I forgot which one that is</p>

<p>oh yeah now I remember, yeah there were two possibilities</p>

<p>Ah, figured it out. Thanks guys.</p>

<p>screw this, gonna go play ball.
no more answers from me, wasted to much time lol
someone wanna compile all the answers?</p>

<p>wait i see a flaw on on it being 65. ok so if x is 65 then the angle conterclockwise to it is also 65. Consequently the angle that is clockwise to x has to be 50. but that cannot be it because then the lower left triangle would have a total of 175 degrees.</p>

<p>Quick question? Are we allowed to be discussing SAT questions? o.o</p>

<p>Okay, jumping in here after reading 28 pages, and just wanted to say that I got 60 degrees but I definitely wasn’t 100% or even 80% sure in answering that. If I got that right I think I either got 2 or 3 wrong total… if I got it wrong probably 4 wrong. I just really want to break 700; crossing my fingers!</p>

<p>newver mind cb does not equal ab so my assumption is incorrect. Hoping for an 800 with -1.:(</p>

<p>jamiroquai you raise my hopes. haha still forcing my mind to make it be 60 haha:)</p>

<p>ah, so is it still possible x = 65? /sweats o.o</p>

<p>^ Don’t get your hopes up! I feel like we’re definitely outnumbered…</p>

<p>wait was there really two answers for the parrallel lines question</p>
