Why Trigonomety?

If you have studied the Elements of Euclid, you find that an angle is the inclination of two lines, i.e. two lines which have one, and only one relative difference to consider.

From that one idea, we find that there has been a whole so called science, based on the fact, given two things in a plane, they do not lean one to the other, or they do. All one is asked to do, then, is to provide a ratio which describes this one relative, out of the one simple thing, we have libraries full of bull shit on the topic.
It is a good place to start in explaining our naming convention, and the inability of people to come into agreement on it.
To date, no one has done a definitive work on cutting out the bull shit with names. but a few have tried. It is an attempt to civilize mankind.

I don't know much about trigonometry, Phil... onlytrigganometry which I hold two degrees in.

That must mean that you are an excellent parrot. Birds do not have much of a brain.

Show me Obiwan, any work in Trigonometry where the author settled on one, and only one convention of names. Every one I have read the author plays the shell game with naming conventions, bloating the work with bull shit.

You really like to show off that you are a paper trained animal. One fool praising another fool, does not make either of them anymore intelligent than what they were born with.
