Official SAT Math IIc October Discussion

<p>Yeah, I think I got 92 then.</p>

<p>you cant assume taht rosa is in between becuase what if she got first, thats still top 80 percentile but not betwene the two.</p>

<p>The dots was 8 * 8 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 92</p>

<p>i think the qtion stated that she was at the 80th percentile, not in it</p>

<p>^ agreed. </p>

<p>So, answer choices were 24, 81, 92, and what else? I'm still trying to figure out what I put. I'm pretty certain I put 92, but I want to be sure xD</p>

<p>If she's 80 percentile, than she was 9th (8 did better than her). Juan was 5th, and Pedro was 34th, so she was in between both of them.</p>

<p>**** i thought it said she didnt better tahn 80 percent</p>

<p>What was the answer to the similar triangles question?</p>

<p>4/5 i think</p>

<p>Wasn't it supposed to be cos^-1(x) = 53 degrees?</p>

<p>no that qtion was not asking about a degree.. i think it was 4/5</p>

<p>What did the triangles look like? It was 2 for the adjacent of the smaller triangle and then what was the other triangle?</p>

<p>i dont remember but the only answers were fractions..
maybe you were thinking of the other qtion using law of cos?</p>

<p>I got 120 for the heartbeat one; I did it by hand then plugged it into my calculator to check.
I left one blank. ah, the plane and line question--I had thought it said line was parallel, so I put 2 lines instead, so I know I got at least one wrong.
The sim triangles one I got 4/5 too. I remember it was like 8/3 divided by 10/3 or something like that, which simplified to 4/5.</p>

<p>Hmm, I might be... </p>

<p>Can anyone else remember what the triangles looked like?
I do know that the adjacent was 2 and the other side had a 3 somewhere...</p>

<p>ccri what did the triangles look like?</p>

<p>wasnt it a 3-4-5 triangle?</p>

<p>I think so, but the answer was 4/5</p>

<p>Wait, wasn't angle A = 53 degrees or something?</p>

<p>i dunno, but i think it was given...</p>

<p>does anyone remember any other qtions that were challenging?</p>

<p>it was like one 3-4-5 triangle and the other triangle was 4/3 ratio or something</p>
