<p>Hi,
I'm taking the SAT II Physics subject test tomorrow, and I've been reading the Barron's prep book. It talks a lot about trig formulas, SOHCAHTOA, etc and using them in things like vector problems. My understanding is that we are not allowed to have a calculator on the Physics Subject Test. Some of the sample problems are 45 degrees, in which you could use the root two-one-one formula, but what do you do if the angle is 38 degrees or something? Are we allowed to use a calculator? Will the problems be different? Or am I missing some major math/physics concept that will help me get through this?</p>

<p>Thanks. Post soon!</p>

<p>I don’t think 38 degrees would be on the test. Usually the problem would have some sort of special triangle in it.</p>

<p>I would definitely not worry about this</p>
