| Egad! I gotta take Geometry tomorrow, and I have no idea as to how to do sine/cosine/tangent! God, I'm stupid! How are your finals, people? | |||

| I just took a geometry final, and I got a B+, so I passed with an A. Sine is the opposite side over the hypotenuse, cosine is the adjacent side over the hypotenuse, and tangent is the opposite over the adjacent. Also, inverse sines, cosines, and tangents are used for finding angles. To do that, you first take the sine, cosine, or tangent of the angle you're trying to find, then use the inverse function on the calculator (2nd, then the sine/cosine/tangent). |

The secret to sine/cosine/tangent is . . . sohcahtoa!!! Remember the "h"'s! They're silent.  Anyway, I've been trucking through my finals all week long. Not breaking into a sweat, crumbling under the constant pressure to do well, or anything like that. I've been pretty much taking it easy. You know, like not studying for over thirty minutes and constantly taking breaks. Tomorrow's my last one, and I get home at 9:30 . . . in the morning! =D *thumbs up + onomatopoeia * Note: sohcahtoa soh: sine = opposite/hypotenuse cah: cosine = adjacent/hypotenuse toa: tangent = opposite/adjacent You can pretty much base everything off of that. <.< (edited by Teddylot on 06-10-04 09:14 PM) |

| My Algebra teacher had the most ridiculous one... yet I still remember it. Some Old Hen (sine) Caught Another Hen (cosine) Taking Oats Away (tangent). |

| Yeah, SohCahToa is how our math teachers taught it to us. As for my finals, they're done (woohoo!), and they weren't too bad, considering I haven't been to either class (math or chem) since the first midterm in each. Chem I'm not too worried about. Calc, however, I have no idea how I did. | |||

I had 2 finals this term.  My other 2 courses relied on take-home finals.I did well on all four, of course.  Every single question on the formals was multiple choice.  |

| I wrote my french and english finals today. Not much trouble. I was worried about grammar. Analysing grammar isnt really my thing. But I still managed to do well. My English exam was one big essay, and I nailed it. Next Teusday I will write my physics exam. It wont be to hard, I have been getting 80s all year. All I have to do is remember my twenty calculation triangles and do a bit of problems over the week end. My History exam will be on Thursday. Again, I have been doing good in history and the exam is open books and note accessible, so it will be easy. |

| Mines are next week Wednesday and Thursday. Im not gonna study, and I dont know what Im doing in ANY of my classes. Luckily Im getting As and Bs in all my classes so failing the finals is only gonna put me in the Bs and Cs section, and I have honors classes so my GPA will remain in the As and Bs section. SION BEATS THE SYSTEM YET AGAIN!!!! |

Mwhahaha..my finals have been done a week ago  ..last Thursday. I had a few finals. I had one in History, Alg. 2, and Spanish. During the final week I didn't have one in math but we still had a test. We had a test in Health too though but then we had a little party. I hope I did well on them..I haven't even got my report card yet  |

| I like midterm exams better. I got a 99 on my midterm for geometry, and 89 on the final. I did get an A both semesters, though. | |||

Originally posted by JJ64 Oh yay, let's try learn some gibberish which will confuse us. I prefer Sohcahtoa. It's like a whole new word designed for that use (I know, it basically is) My exams finished on 20th May, results come on 10th August |

| I was taught Sohcahtoa also, its much better then that nonsense. I had to take Trig Quix today and when I looked at the test I was like this....  ! So I just took a nap and then 5 minutes before the end of class I copied off my friend. |

| They never taught us anything like that, we just had to remember. Of course, I don't remember anything about that stuff now, except it involves the sides of triangles, but I'm sure the book will tell us what it's about if a situation we'll have to use it appears. Ah well. I had my finals Wednesday. Not sure what the english name of the subject is, but it involves databases. So we had to create a database for keeping track of delivered essays and whatnot (easy), write an ad for a laptop intended to be used by some university student (Not easy), and some notes on why you chose this and that application in the ad. (not easy if you didn't know what the hell you were writing in the ad. Which I didn't.) We'll see. |
