I would like to know why with so many topics in Math B why a part 3 and part
4 question test the same thing law of sines and cosines. Also why the
picture for 28 is drawn to look like a right angle, it is approximately 94 degrees
but come on this is ridiculous. If a student is going to get 28 right
chances are they will get 34 right. I feel this test is designed to confuse
students. I find it extremely friustrating to teach a good course and have
students work hard then be given a test that is unreliable. I understand their is
too much information to test everything but why are the same topics tested
twice.
Sorry I just neeed to vent.

Beverly,
For #28, the stem of the question states that the angle is obtuse (and it's
approx 94 degrees). I do not see any problem with the angle as it is drawn.
