Sine= opposite side/hypotenuse Cosine=adjacent side/hypotenuse Tangent=opposite side/adjacent side This only applies with right triangles. You can use the Sin, Cos, and Tan concepts to find missing angle measures and side lengths | |

If you run out of time circle B for any question you missed out on answering - u will be guaranteed a couple extra marks that u would normally miss out on - well Unless they mark u down for incorrect answers Good luck!!!!  mailto:www.iDon'tThinkSo.com.Uranus | |

I guess it's time to seduce the teacher. Wear something tight and if it's a woman good for you. If it's a man, well you'll be trying something new. LOL

I'm sure that may have been your best math teacher despite the writing. I really find that people educated in math overseas teach it better than those educated here, even my dad was cursing the education system when trying to help with homework that wasnt well explained. Once the right person explained math to me, I was fine [Edited 6/11/13 11:22am] | |

If all else fails do what I did on math tests where I didn't understand anything: talk about flaws in the education system and the unlikelyhood you'd ever use it in a real world situation. | |

Oh damn how i would love to change places with you. Riiight! It's one thing to get up early to go to work but when u have to get up early and prepare for a college exam it can test your nerve. Loved english and science but hated Trig and Geometry. Good luck. I can't help u mane. Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint | |

I think it matters hiw u relate to yiur students that helps teaching. I learned more in Mr Lilierve(sp?) And Mr. wilsons class. They were both very insightful and inspired me...and they were both born and educated in the states. [Edited 6/12/13 8:58am] | |

Don't look at me - I'm mathproof.  We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |
