Trig is trig, most americans learn it as high school freshmen. I'm sorry you're finding out now that you were in remedial math but here we are.
Edit: Also I thought I was thor, you dummies can't keep your stories straight.
High School Freshman do not learn trig in the US unless they're the most accelerated courses, aka TAG (Talented and Gifted) which I was in. Were you? Are you high? Let me give you the "accelerated" version of math: Pre-Algebra 6th grade. Algebra 7th grade. Geometry 8th Grade. Algebra 2 (containing half of the high school "trig" teaching) 9th grade. Pre-Calculus 10th grade (when I started college, and the second half of high school "trig"). Calculus 11th grade. 12th grade requires a college, assuming said accelerated math courses, and assuming public schooling. I do not believe for a moment that the schooling of two and a half decades ago is less than the schooling today. Not for a heartbeat. Because I've been watching as TAG has been discontinued in my state, I've watched as Pre-A has been lifted to 7th minimum, Geometry is strictly high school, and Pre-calc is Junior level (I was already in college, I never served a Junior year in high school). I went from pre-calc to Trig. It was accurate testing. Given your faulty views on math classes alone, my basic assumption is that you were in remedial classes, and have no idea what you're talking about.
I've never once said you were Thor. If you wish to throw off strange statements, stick with those who made them. Perhaps you should pay attention to join dates? Confusing me with random people who joined JSP in the last year or two is not your best bet, newbie. Oh, right, math isn't your strong suit.

And when those teachers go postal?
Should we arm the kids too?
Wait wait... I thought these teachers were epically qualified and shit. Certainly they undergo the same kind of psych evaluations that one would demand from anyone entrusted with the safety of children, no?
Oh, you're right. We don't ask for anything in particular from teachers other than that they get themselves a Masters Degree that's completely unrelated to what they "teach" out of a book, and a teaching certificate.
Huh, honestly, you make a great point. Why SHOULD we trust teachers with the safety OR the education of our children?

pro guns/pro certain laws.
So wait, I need more information still. You've just stated you're for clothing that allows minors to smuggle weapons into K-12 schools. Didn't you say in one of the Uvalde topics that not only were guns the issue, but that the fact that an 18 year old was capable of purchasing a firearm was unacceptable?
I still need more information. Please expand.
