After doing very well in trigonometry 60 years ago, I still have absolutely no idea what all the terms mean and I only know that it helps determine how tall a tree is without having to use a very long tape measure and climbing to the top. Perhaps if there has been sex in my text book I might understand it all.
Humorous indeed, but pathetic on the part of Mark Taylor, Esq.
As a former teacher who is a lifelong resident, I find your articles quite refreshing and well written. I can attest the vulgarity of math and pray for the innocent children exposed to it. How far have we fallen?
