    Had a real hard time learning trig in school. It was only until I learned what the real world use of it was that I actual understood it. I remember asking the teacher back in high school what it was use for only to be directed to a posted hung on the wall that was a chart with what careers used what types of math, Out of likely 30 careers listed trig was only indicated on math teacher and rocket scientist. What an udder fail. I'm sure if I grew up in a manufacturing heavy city 50 years ago I would have had no issues learning it as it was be taught practically how it was actually used.

    Having been married 4 times and this last one for over 20 years... I finally figured it out. I mean how to get your wife to WANT you to buy toys... I mean tools. Make stuff for her. It's that simple. Or in order for you to do something that she wants, show her how this new tool (insert any damn tool you need) will help you do what she WANTS you to do. OH, and it does help if you bring her to your working area and let her watch you do some magical thing like cutting a special thread on a small part. OH... I forgot to tell you. If by chance you are one of those who believe that opposites attract... that isn't love its lust. so... Hopefully you were smarter than I was and you only married once and she has A LOT in common with you. Then she will understand exactly what the hell you are doing and why. That way, when you say "Honey, how about we go to Woodcraft and look at the wood lathes." and she says..." How about we go to Woodcraft and buy a wood lathe." You will know you have chosen wisely... BUT... be damn sure you make stuff for her!!! Now. How did I get my first metal lathe? I had a great rifle that I loved but I found a South Bend 9A lathe that I wanted more. I traded. Here is the small lesson. If you sell something, use that money to buy something to replace it. Similarly, if you are going to trade something, trade it for something you are going to replace it with. I had a great rifle that my grandpa had given me so the ole 30.06 just wasn't needed any more. hence my new lathe. Good hunting!! OH, and in case I forgot to mention it... make stuff for her!!!

"That's all?".. I worked with Sinebars a lot, Just like This old Tony, i made one myself, since i needed it for very precise grinding of angles.. My last Math Teacher "handed me the tools" he made me see it.. and from that moment on, i was able to calculate Cartesian coordinates from drawings with polar dimensions, i could calculate the trail of a motorbike, by measuring the Fork angle, the offset, Fork length and wheel diameter.. all of the sudden.. these things couldn't hide their secrets from me.. I always say, if you can use math in everyday life, it becomes easy.. because you're using it all the time..

    When public education is forced funded and education is mandated, it is no surprise the quality and usefulness goes down. Consider that many public schools are also daycare centers and indoctrinate siphoning funds away from real useful practical education. Consider universities mandating all sorts of diversity classes and such to get a degree. It is indoctrination coupled with a type of extortion. Consider people taking classes for what they want to learn are more likely to work to learn. Likewise when parents and guardians are involved with their children's education, the children are more likely to learn. School choice is a step in a better direction.

    The problem teachers face with this kind of dry subject is putting it into a context that students will be interested in and concentrate. Viewers of this old channel are interested in making lumps of metal different shapes. Tony can use applicable examples to show how it all works which makes the information bit more interesting and you engage more. In a class of 30 to 40 students, very few of them will have a similar set of interests, so teachers are limited in how to show what they are teaching in a real world setting. This gives rise to people saying 'when will I ever use this crap after I leave school?. In a job I had many years ago I had to help a guy set CCTV cameras up to monitor banks of slot machines for a couple of days whilst his assistant was out sick. Now how they used to do it was one would watch the monitor whilst the other would tweak settings and lenses on the camera. This seemed like a long winded way to so it. So I asked if we could try one camera my way, with that evening's beers riding on the success of my idea. I took the tape measure and measured the length of the bank on slot machines, the height of them, the height of the ceiling, and the angle of the lens' field of view. Then using a bit of trigonometry, worked out how far away from the machines the camera should be located, the angle from the machines both in relation to the ceiling and to the bank of machines. Armed with may calculations, I measured out where the camera was to be located and mounted it, used an old school protractor to set the angles and hooked up the cable. The only tweak we needed was to focus the camera and then agree to what time my colleague would be getting the first beer in. It took about 1/5th of the time they used to take and as far as I know, they're still using my method and enjoying longer breaks because they 'forgot' to tell our manager they found a quicker way to do the job. Even the strangest maths taught in school can crop up in every day life.

    Yo don't forget to tell people about degrees and radians on that calculator machine. You'll get wildly different answers

    Yeah, lots of calculators use radians as the default.

    There is so much brilliant explanation of useful math in this video, I dont know how it could be improved. Machinists and woodworkers alike can put this to use. TOT is the best on youtube.

    some of this went over my head, at about 17:09 I'm gonna have to watch this video several times. The first part was very eye opening. I remember taking Trigonometry in college, I could never could get thru it, and I wasn't exposed enough to it in high school, or just wasn't taught well, back in 1982. when I went back to college, in 1992, I was still lost, and had to take rudimentary math again, to get back into the game. I have never had any instructor, who had the ability to teach this subject like Tony. Visual aides help a lot, with today's technology, it should be easy, but I suspect teachers are still using antiquated techniques to teach this subject. I want to learn this again, I'm 56yo, it may take me longer, but damn, Tony makes it very interesting. I'm enjoying this so much!

    You’ve inspired me to pickup my old Trig books and try to relearn. Been putting it off for years.

    I found the Khan academy website, it has done wonders for relearning all of the math that I should have learned in k-12 education.

    You only did one yeah of trig in High School? Back in the Eighties we had 5 years of High School and trig was part of the syllabus every year. (Full disclosure, I took Mathematics right through Matric)
