Why do you think Trigonometry is a difficult subject to understand?

Aha, such a wise guy my friend, I am proud of you.
No. Not at all. I didn't find any difficulties in my school days regarding trigonometry.

Trigonometry is much easier than calculus. :)

People find it difficult if they don't clear their basics otherwise it is so easy. :)
I wanted to ##### my maths teacher in class 11th, because he was like a robot while teaching trigonometry, he would keep on writing and wiping before most of us understood. I had to take help of my father to understand them.
If you understand then it is not difficult but if you don't know ,it may be difficult.
You are right this is all about understanding a particular subject. Later I got 95 in maths in intermediate.

Suny i used to love Maths and Maths teacher too and that love with the teacher made me a brilliant student of Maths i got 90% marks in 12th :) .Integration and differential calculus were my favourite topics in 12th. :)
Yes, everyone feel trigonometry as difficult subject. But if we understand and memorize the forumale then is it very easy.
Does differentiation and integration comes under trigonometry? If so, I like it very much :P

Sandhya Rani differentiation and integration comes under calculus and they are different from trigonometry.
trignometry and matrices are the easiest subjects in mathematics.

I always used to hate matrix :angry: in Maths as it was too confusing when i have to do multiplication of 2 matrices though tigonometry was very interesting. :lol:
I used to love working on matrices.when In exams I used attempt matrix question first

There were 2 topics in matrices in our syllabus one was determinant and matrix. :) I used to hate matrix but never lost marks in exams due to it. :)
Oh thats great so you escaped from matrices. Very intellegent
I think this is because it involves many angles and all three dimensions that's why. But then in India we are not explained the meanings but simply asked to mug up the formulae, this makes it even more difficult.
No In India no teacher says to the student to byheart and first explain to students how that forumala has been came but if the student could not understand the derivation of the formula then only teacher made students to by heart the formula so that they can score marks

Its not that Ankit if you mug up the formulas definitely things become tough one should always understand the things and not try to cram. :) I remember in 11th we were not taught differentiation so the derivation in physics in 11th looked difficult for us but once we knew differentiation and integration they became easier.We also used to mug up derivations in 11th. :lol:
I think Trigonometric is not difficult ,but it requires practice.it's formulas are quite simple.But in my opinion practice matters.If you want to practice then trigonometry worksheets will be very useful for you.
I thought so while I first encountered it. But later this was lie 1-2-3 for me.

Sin,cos and all were so easy for me.Trigonometry was never confusing for me.People used to cram formulas and forget but i never used to. :)
