“A considreable portion of my high school trigonometry course was devoted to the solution of oblique triangles... I have still not had an excuse for using my talents for solving oblique triangles. If a professional mathematician never uses these dull techniques in a highly varied career, why must all high school students devote several weeks to the subject?” IfsStillsUseSchoolCoursesCareersWeekSubjectsTalentStudentsSolutionsHigh SchoolExcuseTechniqueDullPortionsDevotedMathematicianTrianglesFormal EducationHigh School StudentsTrigonometry Author:John G.
