Typical Board of Education response. Goes to show how clueless they are. The easy way to reword is "determine the value of x". The blonde probably becomes a lawyer.

[PipingDesign] OT: Math Test and Blondes

My apologies in advance:

"Attached is problem 3 on a geometry examination. It is the solution submitted by a beautiful blonde student. It is our understanding that after careful scrutiny, the student was given credit for the answer by the teacher. When hearing of this the Board of Education warned math teachers to be more explicit in the wording of problems but was hesitant to suggest how."
