This semester..

Well, this semester has been interesting, I've never had to take a class that wasn't with my group. And it's been a really fun experience since I'm learning so much new things about math, th will end up aiding me in the future. It's really not all that hard, or maybe I just have a knack for math. Well, I guess that would be it for this semester, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all who read this!

The test..

Yesterday, I also took a test. It was graphing exponential functions and from the looks of it, basic logarithms. It took me a while to actually finish the test, but when I finished it I realized how simple it really was, and that I was getting frustrated over nothing at all. In the end, I think I did very well on the test, and there a big chances that I might not have to take the pre-calculus final test.

Quizzes!

I've taken a few quizzes in my pre-calculus class, and in most of them I do well, but the last one really caught me by surprise. I got a 35/50, it's not bad, but it isn't good. The quiz if I remember correctly was graphing equations, but we had to find the asymtotes and such, and I made an error and that basically ruined the whole exercise. But hey at least my teacher was nice enough to notice that even though I got one part wrong, I did the exercise how I was supposed to with the results that I got.

Been a bit busy lately.

Sorry for not posting much. I've been a bit busy with different classes and such, got to get those grades up. Anywho, lately we have been getting into a lot of graphs and such, actually, since we began. But more now than ever, finding asymptotes and such. But hey it's pretty simple if you don't make any errors in your calculations. It happens xD

Well..

We've been doing quite a few new things in pre-calculus lately. We recently got into asymptotes, if I'm spelling it correctly. We did a proyect not long ago that makes us consider how trigonometry might fall within real life situations and how it helps us get more variables to consider within an enviroment or a problem. Here is a picture of mine:
We are basically finding the height of the screen with the angle from the bottom of the car to the top of the screen and the length from the car to the screen. And it forms a gigantic triangle. And what's on the screen? An Espurr. It's a pokemon xD
Math is much more important than people even give it credit for, when it comes down to it. Math is everywhere, even where we didn't even think it was. I mean, if it weren't for math, would we have all these revolutionary inventions we have nowadays?

First post.

Well I'll be tracking my progress in my pre-calculus class, show what I've learned and am learning.. This page describes the purpose of the blog.
