Guys guys guys, I seriously just had to wiki Trig to remember that sin A = opposite/hypotenuse, cos A = adjacent/hypotenuse, tan A = sin A/cos A = opposite/adjacent.

I seriously forgot SOHCAHTOA. I'm losing my mind :(

F-forgot SOHCAHTOA? *holds you* It's clearly the Lone Power's wicked entropic powers at work. OMG FIGHT IT LABELLE.

o.O That's POSSIBLE?

It's okay, I wiki sec^2x - tan^2x = 1, and all the half-angle and double-angle formulae. --''

Our maths teacher set them up in one of those cute little physics triangles so I've never forgotten the order...what they mean yes but not the order

Oh wow. It's been so long since trig, I'd forgotten that I ever knew that.

Wha...? I will never forget that, and I blame my frosh geometry teacher in high school. She told us SOH CAH TOA, and majorly hyped this joke, all year long, that the Trig teacher had. We were all excited for it, we waited another two years, and when we finally heard the story, it was the most anticlimactic moment of my life so far. Hyped for the whole year, as the best joke in the world, it want summat like this:

Once upon a time, there was an old Indian Chief. One day, while he was out hunting buffalo, she stubbed his toe on a very large rock. This amde him cross for the rest of the day, and he didn't catch anything while hunting. When he came home to his tepee, his squaw tried in vain to brighten his mood. Finally, she begged him, "What do you want to do? You're so unhappy! Tell me!" And he replied, "I wanna SOA CAH TOA!"

Oh! He wants to soak his toe! Oh, I'm laughing so hard! ...oy. Hence, I shall never forget it. So much buildup to so much letdown. *le sigh*

You math people are all insane
