everyday.

keep your nose clean and shower everyday

I will, I not a freshmen yet but i want to be prepared

try not to draw too much attention to yourself...and if the football team should accidently happen to pass you by...say your prayers and make sure you got some "milk money" ready...

find your clique and have a great time

ahhhh High School...i remember the good ol days...lockers, girls, pranks...gettin randomly pantsed while walking down the halls...

how should i talk to girls i've talked to girls but I havent really flirted with any girls

im not queer im straight

im not queer im straight You walk up to a girl, and say "hello." That's how you talk to girls.

i havent watched yu gi oh for 2yrs and yugioh is gay.I just got that on my avatar cause i couldnt find any more pics

matter of fact im going to change it right now

Have hall passes ready for thoes damn moniters. DMB

What ****ing high school has a ****ing Hall Monitor?

Liberty did DMB

Liberty sucks then.B

well do high schools have freshman hell week

High School is just a step up from Middle School, I say. You have nothing to really help you "prepare" for it. Every school is different anyway.

Kelly would know cause she spent 6 years in high school

oh havent thought of it like that

Especially considering the fact that I'm condescending and flamboyant.

Well, now you did.

So they beat up freshmen.
I can fight ,so i guess i will have to watch my back?Or keep a stick or something and fight them

Freshman never got beat up here at my school. That was just a rumor to scare them shitless. It's probably the same for your school.

yeah i know what u mean cause those subjects are hard since their advanced.

they are?

I studied some of my sisters high school text books and it was pretty hard

what is trig?

Trigonometry. The study of Triangles.

Sounds easier than it really is.

Okay.
I took a glimpse at your profile were u really born in 1927?

No.

oh okay.

so trigonometry is studying triangles that seems easy.
Do u have to find area and volume of the shapes?

Lemme give you a quick overview:


Basic definitions
In this right triangle: sin(A) = a/c; cos(A) = b/c; tan(A) = a/b.
Enlarge
In this right triangle: sin(A) = a/c; cos(A) = b/c; tan(A) = a/b.

The shape of a right triangle is completely determined, up to similarity, by the value of either of the other two angles. This means that once one of the other angles is known, the ratios of the various sides are always the same regardless of the size of the triangle. These ratios are traditionally described by the following trigonometric functions of the known angle:

* The sine function (sin), defined as the ratio of the leg opposite the angle to the hypotenuse.
* The cosine function (cos), defined as the ratio of the adjacent leg to the hypotenuse.
* The tangent function (tan), defined as the ratio of the opposite leg to the adjacent leg.

The adjacent leg is the side of the angle that is not the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is the side opposite to the 90 degree angle in a right triangle; it is the longest side of the triangle.

\sin A = {\mbox{opp} \over \mbox{hyp}} \qquad \cos A = {\mbox{adj} \over \mbox{hyp}} \qquad \tan A = {\mbox{opp} \over \mbox{adj}} = {\sin A \over \cos A}

The reciprocals of these functions are named the cosecant (csc), secant (sec) and cotangent (cot), respectively. The inverse functions are called the arcsine, arccosine, etc. There are arithmetic relations between these functions, which are known as trigonometric identities.

With these functions one can answer virtually all questions about arbitrary triangles, by using the law of sines and the law of cosines. These laws can be used to compute the remaining angles and sides of any triangle as soon as two sides and an angle or two angles and a side or three sides are known. These laws are useful in all branches of geometry since every polygon may be described as a finite combination of triangles.

Extending the definitions
Graphs of the functions sin(x) and cos(x), where the angle x is measured in radians.

Graphs of the functions sin(x) and cos(x), where the angle x is measured in radians.

The above definitions apply to angles between 0 and 90 degrees (0 and π/2 radians) only. Using the unit circle, one may extend them to all positive and negative arguments (see trigonometric function). The trigonometric functions are periodic, with a period of 360 degrees or 2π radians. That means their values repeat at those intervals.

The trigonometric functions can be defined in other ways besides the geometrical definitions above, using tools from calculus or infinite series. With these definitions the trigonometric functions can be defined for complex numbers. The complex function cis is particularly useful

\mathrm {cis} (x) = \cos x + i\sin x \! = e^{ix}

See Euler's formula.

Mnemonics

The sine, cosine and tangent ratios in right triangles can be remembered by SOH CAH TOA (sine-opposite-hypotenuse cosine-adjacent-hypotenuse tangent-opposite-adjacent). It is commonly referred to as "Sohcahtoa" by some American mathematics teachers, who liken it to a (nonexistent) Native American girl's name. See trigonometry mnemonics for other memory aids.

Calculating trigonometric functions

Main article: Generating trigonometric tables

Trigonometric functions were among the earliest uses for mathematical tables. Such tables were incorporated into mathematics textbooks and students were taught to look up values and how to interpolate between the values listed to get higher accuracy. Slide rules had special scales for trigonometric functions.

Today scientific calculators have buttons for calculating the main trigonometric functions (sin, cos, tan and sometimes cis) and their inverses. Most allow a choice of angle measurement methods, degrees, radians and, sometimes, grad. Most computer programming languages provide function libraries that include the trigonometric functions.

DONT piss of the teachers. Until after the first quarter. Then just go ahead because they know you and wont be too dissappointed.

jawdrop that is alot i should write it down.

Ok, sorry, but asking for advice seems kinda geeky Just fyi, if you went to school with me and I knew about it, I would SOOO give you crap about it.

You know, just asking for advice seems kinda geeky. I mean, not to be a *****, but if you went to school with me and I knew about this, I would so give you shit about it.

agreed ermm

but, just so I don't feel bad, here's my advice:
Join a club or activity or something, just so you belong to something and aren't a loser.

I'm going to highschool next year aswell

Chess club would not be a good idea. Or cheerleading, really. Pick something macho. Please.

I was thinking like band...because everyone loves the band

Actually, I dont know any band geeks. Everyone thinks band is pretty cool. Until you go to a concert and its all quantity over quality.

concert band is stupid...marching band is cool

but, little freshman, don't join marching band if you're going to goof off and talk to your friends and not do any of the work like learning your charts and your music. people hate it when freshman screw up a show. like, really REALLY hate it. Like more than the football team hates nerds. Hate...hate...

Hmmm

Dont ever take any food from higher grades either. Trust me.

Yay for stereotypes!

I was being sarcastic when I said that.

My school didnt have stereotypes like that. It was pretty much 'meh, whatever'. 'Jocks' never picked on 'nerds', 'seniors' never picked on 'freshmen', there was no school 'band', the only people who played instruments consisted of whoever was doing music courses so there were like...5 people from each year level, no skanky popular bitches walking around like they owned the place.....

Calk sucks 2 tolet you know its after trig. DMB

Don't get beat up, don't flirt with take girls... I don't care how pretty they are, just don't do it! If you're with your friends, always make sure you're not the biggest loser, that way if a bully comes by, they won't pick on you. And if you're thinking you won't get your ass kicked, are SADLY mistaken. 1234

Don't take dumps at school, just don't...

im in 9th grade now and i got to say, all of the upperclassmen love me cuz i kick ass in basketball. im the only freshman who is going to get alot of playing time. so its pretty easy for me. plus all the middle school kids i knew last year still like me sooooo...so far high school is pretty nice
