    I’ve taken like four or five advanced trigonometry courses and I still can’t really define what trigonometry is. Mathematics is like Andrew Tate’s Hustler University scam. If you take one class, it only exists to prove that you’re a mark and sell you more classes.

      Trig is basically the study of a wiggly line and how it turns out to be useful everywhere

      I enjoyed the trigonometry unit in my highschool geometry class, but that’s because it was mostly proofs, and those were just philosophy about triangles.

      I have a masters in math and I have no fucking idea what a second course in “advanced trigonometry” looks like much less a fifth
