Answer to Question 1

Rhythm Ventricular rhythm is essentially regular.
Rate 101 to 250 (121 to 250 per some cardiologists) beats/min.
P waves Usually not seen; if present, they have no set relationship with the QRS complexes that appear between them at a rate different from that of the VT.
PR interval None.
QRS duration 0.12 seconds or greater; often difficult to differentiate between the QRS and T wave.

Answer to Question 2

B
Lead V3 views the anterior of the left ventricle.
