At a school reunion, I asked my teacher about it, I don't think he ever did?

Sounds like trigonometry to me.

Sine and cosine are trigonomic functions. Used them quite a bit when working in a Machine shop in the 80s.

I hated algebra. It’s best to look at it as the the language of mathematics. Trig and calc are pretty cool. Algebra is the language requirement.

Sine for yourself, but be leerie of cosining for someone else.

At any rate, Bill Hall, our principal, got me into a freshman shop class, and I graduated on time.

Used Trig all the time when fitting pipe in the factory.

You need to run a 8 inch diameter line across 42 feet horizontal distance. But you also have 12 feet vertical offset. How long do you make the transitional piece And what are the angles of the elbows to connect it?

A squared plus B squared equals C squared will get you the answer to the first question. But you're gonna need trig to answer the second.

Only a very small percentage of the population have seen truly advanced algebra.
