Sine of the Times On March 6, the math department administered the Thirty-First Annual High School Mathematics Examination to students in Trigonometry and Cal¬ culus. These tests, which consist of thirty questions, are officiated by the Mathematics Association of America and the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics. Culpeper, who has par¬ ticipated in these exams since the 1960’s, is part of Region IV, which in¬ cludes Northern Virginia, Washington D.C., and part of Maryland. The Calculus students were required to take the test, but Trigonometry stu¬ dents received an option. After the tests were taken Mrs. Mitchell and Mrs. Carpenter graded them and determined school winners. Karen Hall and Leslie Game tied for first place with Mary Carlton receiving second. Mary com¬ mented that it was “all luck.” Their tests were sent on to the National Com¬ petition where they would compete against others from all over the country. When Mrs. Carpenter was asked what she thought of the test when she took it in high school her reply was simple, “Impossible!” LEFT: Julie Skelley and Mark Ferlazzo show their interest in their geometry class. •3.
