March 12 SAT Compilation of verified answers - Math

<p>That's not the way I read it...</p>

<p>anyone get "1" as a fill in choice, i think it was the 2nd 3rd or 4th one</p>

<p>All the question said is that points A and E lie on the circle, and then which choice(s) could be true to make segment MA equal to segment ME.</p>

<ul>
<li>M can obviously be the center of the circle, because then segments are the radius of the circle, so I is correct.</li>
<li>M can lie on the circle, because if it is the midpoint of points A and E, then MA will equal ME, so II is correct.</li>
<li>M can lie outside of the circle because it's still possible to have M equidistant from A and E (kind of like an isosceles triangle attached to a circle), so III is also correct.</li>
</ul>

<p>Yay I'm getting a 500 on the math section w00000000000t! :D</p>

<p>zach it would be an isosceles triangle with the 2 equal legs tangent to the circle at points X and Y, or A and E as you say.</p>

<p>Hey programmer, BTW, did you use your program? I used only one program, a distance formula one, for this specific problem. I have a perfect math score so far. I'm so happy!!!!! For the haters, I got at least 2 verbal wrong.</p>

<p>There's where you're wrong: It said in the problem that the segments were congruent to start with...</p>

<p>So..........? Why would that change anything?
The problem is asking: WHICH OF THESE LOCATIONS FOR POINT M POSSIBLE?
Not Must be true, but possible.</p>

<p>Yea I did it worked very well (for the problems that I actually completed OMG)
I had to think about every problem because they were so wordy and I kept getting confused as to what they wanted.</p>

<p>Whoa NO WAY - it said MUST BE TRUE. Those problems either say possible or MUST and it was definitely MUST. </p>

<p>Look at it this way, you have the two lines congruent to each other, and end with a point on the circle. That means it couldn't have been outside the circle because that would indicate that the lines are tangent to the circle, but for the lines to be tangent, you have to have a LINE, not a LINE SEGMENT.</p>

<p>Can anyone else verify this please?</p>

<p>What?? I do not think it said must, because as I said, there are 2 + infinite places it could be, so you cannot say MUST. By your own logic, you got it wrong, because you can only say it is in one place if the question said Must. CB would not write a question like that, that just by the wording only one answer can be true.</p>

<p>Look this is the question: Points X and Y are located on a circle. Point M is located so that line segment XM and line segment XY are equidistant. What are the possible locations of M?
I.
II.
III.
....</p>

<p>The answer was verified by zach and other people.</p>

<p>Alright everyone add to this list whenever you remember a question (no matter how easy it is) I am using what everyone else had posted. IF YOU ADD SOMETHING NEW PUT AN ASTERISK so it can be confirmed.</p>

<p>if you post on this forum be sure to paste the list from the previous post at the bottom. if you don't like my idea you can yell at me, but maybe we can save a month & get all these questions. lol</p>

<p>1) 200 (squirrels)</p>

<p>2) 75 (two similar triangles, perimeter)</p>

<p>3) .2 (some absolute value problem...I think it was any number between 0 and 1/2?)</p>

<p>4) graph going through origin (directly proportional question)</p>

<p>5) 1600 (sqrt being equal to number divided by 40)</p>

<p>6) $27,200 (chairs + tables)</p>

<p>7) 2 (hypotenuse of triangle w/ perpendicular line drawn through it)</p>

<p>8) 12pi (yinyang circumference)</p>

<p>9) 2.5 ( (x-y)^2+(x+y)^2 > 25 or something like that)</p>

<p>10) 24 (right angles of a cube)</p>

<p>11) 5/8 (shaded rectangle)</p>

<p>12) X^2<X^3<X.......this may or may not have been it, but i know the answer was "C"</p>

<p>13) 1/3 (Water-Pails Graph)</p>

<p>14) (m^2)/k (Exponent question; x^18; x^7 question)</p>

<p>15) (555-x+y)/y (Telephone Charges)</p>

<p>16) t (question w/ x , 2t+t, 2t-t)</p>

<p>17) (1,1) (Center of Circle)</p>

<p>18) 3 (Marble Question...removing marbles)</p>

<p>19) The first one to one of the sections was like 4(x-3) = 16.....the answer was 4</p>

<p>20) X^2 + 2 (equation of parabola)</p>

<p>21) last answer on line...about 1.7 (multiple by -2 on number line)</p>

<p>22) 17 (length of line on number line w/ midpoints)</p>

<p>23) 0 (# of 2 digit #s w/ digit 5 that are prime)</p>

<p>24) 85 (recorrected avg problem)</p>

<p>25) graph w/ holes @ the end of each week...went from wk 1 450 to wk 2 400 etc ended @ 250 (choice of 5 graphs for hole discount)...believe it was one of the 1st couple choices, prob "A")</p>

<p>26) I, II, & III (point M question in relation to circle & line segments)</p>

<p>Hope this helps almost 1/2 way there...can anyone nail down some of the easy ones?</p>

<p>Wat Question Yield An Answer 12 On The Grid In</p>

<p>Yep, I got 500 w0000000000000000000000000000000000000t</p>

<p>12 pi circumfrence problem</p>

<p>no, im talkin about the GRID IN, wat was the question that yield 12 as an answer</p>

<p>I blieve it was 3 simultanious equations I can't remeber what they were exactly though but the answer was 12 that I know for a fact.</p>

<p>I think it was system of equations... anyway, it was 12.</p>

<p>Oh, and for the circle it was all 3, that's, again, for sure.</p>

<p>oh yeah, with the u= 3t v= xwv or sum thing, and then w=4 x =1 wat wuld t = or sum s h i t along those lines... sweet im on my way to a 800</p>

<p>that one was stupid I coudln't figure it out.</p>

<p>Nice prelewd, I'm pretty sure i got an 800 also:).</p>
