My bad, sir. It is x = -6, y = 17i.atan(17/12)... if your arithmetic was correct. 6 - 12 = ?

I guess I overestimated the ability for logical thought. TS is saying people need to know math because it is used in computers but you can use many things without knowing how they work or having the ability to produce them.
Then why did you reply to my post if it was clearly a rebuttal to the TS?I guess I overestimated the ability for logical thought. TS is saying people need to know math because it is used in computers but you can use many things without knowing how they work or having the ability to produce them.
So, did you get 109.44 degrees?

Not all of them.Clothes are made of cloth but not many learn how to make textiles and sew. Plastics are made from oil, but not many learn how to find oil or make plastics from it. Other items are made from metals but few learn the process involved to mine, refine and alloy them.
One good way to be better at math is to be one of my children. Guarantees finishing calc II before end of 7th grade and wrecking other kids in math competitions.
