Hey Skydiving Algebra Teachers!

The only skydiving algebra I know is the 45-degree Rule.



That's geometry, not algebra.
If it has angles and shit, it's geometry.
Algebra is when they ask what your "x" is. And "y". :P

that's only for Right angle triangles, Wrong angle triangles don't work like that;)

Weenie stuff! How about some PDEs, a Fourier transform or two, and a handful of 4th rank tensors?

That probably explains why when i have to build something with wrong angle triangles...

It usually ends up wrong. B|


Its funny i remember doing trig in school and thinking there is no way ill ever use this shit in real life. Now i use it almost daily at work.
Best part about doing it these days is that there is an "app" for it so i don't have to think nearly as much.
