Mark Q.30 on the recent June 2017 Geometry Regents as Correct

The Issue

Many people did not expect for the solution to be associated with constructions, as there were no notes that constructions should be made. Upon checking the answer key for question 30, students were confused and upset finding that the answer key stated an answer they had not expected at all. None of the teachers in our school, Stuyvesant High School, a highly prestigious specialized high school, have taught us to solve such a problem in this manner. We feel that it is very unfair that the answer is something none of us have ever learned in our lives.
