tan x = sin x / cos x

sin 2 x = 2 sin x cos x

cos 2 x = 1 - 2sin^2 x

Calculus was my kryptonite last semester. Fuck it. I'll just write abstract poetry.

violin, meat, needle
These are cool.

I'm doing trig right now in school as well.
It makes me want to throw myself off the nearest cliff...

Trig isnt really that horrible, wait until you get to integrals. . . They WILL be the death of you. This is just a stupid question

After this semester I'm never taking math again. I'm at some level of calc right now, and it satisfies the requirements for a bio major so after this, fuck math.

you're kidding right? Trig is so much harder than calc. Trig is the only thing that I have ever struggled with in math ever

It's a tangent expansion. Treat it like tan2(7x) then use the expansion formula, which is tan2x=2tanx/(1-tan^2(x)), substituting 7x for x.

Boom.

Really? I had no trouble in trig. Im in calc now and its not too bad either, but I would say trig is definately easier.

Thank you! Only thing I hate in calc is integrals because my teacher thinks it's fun to give us ones that took him YEARS to solve, we get five difficult ones weekly

If anyone here is in the seattle public school system, there is this math sub called Sr. Pablo, who is super into conspiracies, and if you are having a test that day, start talking about the Illuminati or something like that and there ya go! NO MORE TEST!
