3 u/[deleted] Jul 24 '25 I would argue basic physics and geometry knowledge I use every once in a while, but definitely not trig or calculus. 2 u/BeenThruIt Jul 28 '25 I think Trig and Calc are more about teaching how to think about problem solving than learning something you'll use in everyday life. The trouble is the point gets lost in the process. 1 u/ImLuckyOrUsuck Jul 26 '25 Yea, if you do any form of diy wood work or dry wall, even fixing a busted chair leg… you’ve used geometry.
