Hi AAPL, First thing to recognize is that triangles ABC and CDE are similar(Why?). Also, notice that triangle CED is a 30-60-90 triangle because short side is of length 1 and the hypotenuse is 2. That means CE= sqrt{3} and therefore AC= 5*sqrt{3} . From the ratios of sides in a 30-60-90 triangle, we...

Hi swerve, First off this is not an official GMAT question because it assumes that you know that a unit square has a side of unit 1. The GMAT does not require one to have prior knowledge of jargon, and that is why I always recommend students to stick with official GMAT questions. As for this particu...

Jeremy,

This is great news!! Thank you GMAC for adding two more official practice tests to bring the total number of official tests to six. I have to give kudos to GMAC for significantly improving the amount of official practice materials over the last five years or so.

Cheers,
Dabral
