Subject: RE: For math geeks (there are more of us than you think)Hasn't anyone thought that maybe people actually LIKE trig the way it is? I love it...as I use it EVERY DAY. I'd be lost without my trig functions, I'd be out of a job if I tried to tell the people here that I needed them to rethink the way we do our geometry and solve our angle problems in other ways. OUCH!! LOL
Interesting approach though, but I agree with a previous post...trig is solved in substitution and ratios anyway, which really IS just simple algebra. Hmmph...but then again, I'm a REAL math geek...
I have calculus tattooed on my right calf, and I still have my quadratic equation t-shirt from high school. |
