SAT Math: Geometry and Trigonometry (Drill 1)

About This Drill

SAT Math: Geometry and Trigonometry (Drill 1) is a Math practice drill covering Geometry and Trigonometry. It contains 5 original questions created by Brian Stewart, a Barron's test prep author with over 20 years of tutoring experience.

SAT geometry and trigonometry questions cover area and perimeter of polygons, volume of three-dimensional solids, properties of triangles, circle equations, and basic sine, cosine, and tangent ratios. This drill applies these concepts in both pure and real-world contexts.
