When I took a geometry test in eighth grade, I got a point deducted because I wrote ASS instead of SSA (side-side-angle) when calculating angles and side lengths of a triangle. Still got the right answer though

Oh, wonderful, teachers who punish kids for being kids and/or making mistakes.

In a "show your workings" questions it makes sense.

There’s no difference between SSA and ASS in that context so it’s pointless to punish a student for that
