Official SAT March 10 Math Discussion

<p>I kind of remember... It was a combination question, but MUCH harder than the one that was on the section that actually counted.</p>

<p>I' m thinking of the one question with the picture of three chairs...</p>

<p>I don't remember that one anymore. Do you remember the numbers or what it was asking for? </p>

<p>Oh, and did you get 2 math sections in a row?</p>

<p>YES I had 2 math sections in a row! Therefore I'm pretty sure one of them was experimental.... probably the 2nd one.</p>

<p>Question: The (3,5) Question, what letter choice was that?</p>

<p>Also, I had a question about the distinct points A,B,C and which one is impossible question (number 20). Anyone know how to solve it?</p>

<p>Optimus I omitted the one with A, B, and C on a line then it asked which was false. I just ran out of time!</p>

<p>Was there an answer choice for (2,5)??? I'm worried I put that instead of (3,5)... Although I clearly remember putting (3,5).</p>

<p>My friend had 2 random slip-ups in a math section and he's starting to convince me that I'm wrong:</p>

<p>He could have sworn that the one where you reflect the points over y=x was ACTUALLY reflecting over the x-axis, in which case it would be "None" instead of "Four."</p>

<p>In the plane intersecting a cube one, he could have "sworn" that it said the plane intersected the MIDPOINT of both lines of the cube, thus making it two equal sides and the angle obviously 45...I put 60 but I wasn't sure either...</p>

<p>LOL, tell your friend he's wrong for both. The answers were Four and 60.</p>

<p>Your friend... is extremely... wrong =] </p>

<p>60 and 4 are the answers. </p>

<p>I'm in calculus and I will tell you y=x does not literally mean reflect over the x axis.</p>

<p>Wait I had 3 for that one. If you reflect it along y = x, you get 2 on quadrant I and 3 on quadrant IV.</p>

<p>Thanks...my friend, though, did not think y=x WAS the x-axis; he just misread the question and thought the question asked for the x-axis. He's very offended that you think he's that unintelligent. haha.</p>

<p>I had 3 then realized I was wrong and put 4.</p>

<p>Tell him I'm sorry =] I wasn't trying to offend him. I misinterpreted your post.</p>

<p>Why it's 4? Explain please!</p>

<p>The rest of them would reflect over the y=x to the IV Quadrant. The letter D was the only one on the y axis. That one wouldn't make it negative. The rest would. There were a total of 5 points (A-E).</p>

<p>can someone please explain the cube one...because i dont see how it can be 60 when in a 30-60-90 right triangle the longer side is 2 times larger than the shorter...and since the line didnt extend to the vertex it wasnt 2 times as big...</p>

<p>Wait, you said that D was only one on the y-axis? No points were touching the line in the first place...</p>

<p>I only remember something about the midpoint and as a result, it was 60 degrees. I can't tell you why exactly, but that midpoint gave a lot of information in terms of the ratio.</p>

<p>D was located on (0,y). The others weren't on the y axis. The rest were somewhere in Quadrant II.</p>
