From some class I had don't recall he class... NIMBY, Not in my back yard.

SOH-CAH-TOA as if it were a Native American saying for who knows what
Sin = opposite/hypotnuse
Cosin = adjacent/hypotnuse
tangent = opposite/adjacent

My geometry teacher had quite the creative story that went with this about the Native Indian SOH-CAH-TOA thingee too, but alas I don't recall it.
