Re: How did school lie to you?

[case]

Algebra, sure! You wouldn't think of it as variables but you do the basic stuff pretty much every day ("how much of X would I need to round this up to a dollar? 86 cents + x = 1 dollar, x = 14 cents!").

Trig, I don't know if I've ever used since leaving HS.

Yes. Without algebra you'd pretty much be standing around going "whuh?" half the time. I mean, even with non-number stuff, you have to understand how to put pieces together. But as I said below, even that's not the stuff you have to study in more advanced algebra courses.

Really, that's algebra? I figured that was, you know...counting. I mean - that's how you give change. Eighty-six cents, plus ten is ninety-six, plus four, so fourteen. I guess it can be *written* as an algebraic statement but...it's just counting.

Re: How did school lie to you?

[case]

It technically is, yeah! The most basic algebra is pretty much doing basic arithmetic with an unknown variable or in order to find an unknown variable. That's why algebra is intuitive for a lot of people in ways that stuff like trig and calc aren't.

Re: How did school lie to you?

Weird. I enjoyed algebra, until it was past mid-year and i just couldn't *remember* stuff anymore. Same with geometry. It was enjoyable until i just couldn't remember it well enough to do the later stuff. Bleh.

Tried to help my daughter a few times with her algebra, and it was so completely different than what I was taught - i was useless.
