Trig tables


Trig tables

       Here's one link on the subject: http://www.sosmath.com/tables/trigtable/trigtable.html

            Trigonometry tables have been around for thousands of years. 

            Here's a generic wiki link on the subject:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonometry

            Trigonometry can be viewed as an offshoot of geometry:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometry

            Both school sets will help many during hard times.

            Even GPS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Positioning_System ) uses simple plane geometry at the most fundamental level, although it can get pretty complicated, too. Plan B is just to have a map or diagram or road map, and use that and maybe road signs instead.
