<p>Im in the process of getting the official guides to the SAT Subject Tests. For Math Level II, how much does Conic Sections and Polar Coordinates appear?</p>
<p>I think conic sections are usually 2-3 questions per test, while polar coordinates may or may not be on the test.</p>
<p>Yeah, conics are usually 1-2 questions. I’d be really surprised if there were more than 2 questions about it. They’re usually really simple and straightforward.</p>
<p>Polar showed up once (just one question) for me.</p>
<p>there was so much math analysis and algebra II[intermediate algebra] brush up on your trig and geometric situation-aka ladder problems</p>
<p>Are you talking about geometric sequences? I really haven’t had too much of the “Numbers and Operations” or “Data Analysis, Stats, and Probability” sections that are in Barron’s book. However, your classes may have covered different stuff, so I would recommend getting Barron’s prep book and then just look over the sections and see if there is anything you need to review.</p>
<p>i meant more physics type problems by geometric- ladder against a wall, flagpole, pulley system…etc</p>
<p>Pulleys? No…
I don’t really remember but a flagpole/ladder problem seems plausible. I mean, all those are are pythagorean theorem and/or similar triangles.</p>
<p>For polar coordinates you usually only need to know how to convert from/to polar and cartesian (normal).</p>
<p>Oh ok.
Im in IB Math, so we cover everything that Math II covers + Calculus.</p>
<p>how important is it to know all the trig identities?? like half angle identities, double angle identities, etc etc…
ughhh i hate having to take the subject tests. its like torture all over again!</p>
<p>Trig identities is a possibility, I’d doubt they’d make us do half angle or double angle.</p>
