This video tutorial covers several example problems from the no-calculator section of the SAT Math test. It begins with a division problem involving fractions, followed by solving a literal equation to isolate a variable. The tutorial then explains how to calculate the volume of a right triangular prism and simplifies expressions involving square roots and exponents. It also demonstrates how to represent equations with variables and apply the zero product rule to find solutions. Finally, it uses the cofunction identity to determine angle measures in a right triangle, concluding with a reminder to check out additional SAT preparation resources.
