I like the picture and gave you a + 1, but you are fostering mispronunciation of trigonometric functions. It's bad enough that my students say "sin" instead of "sine."   :P

Sine divided by tangent = cosine, the abbreviation for which is cos. add in the variable and it's cos b which can be mispronounced cosby

Maybe they're pronouncing cosine correctly and Cosby incorrectly.

OK, makes sense. It's been awhile since I've ever needed Trig.

Because spouting off random trig formulas at parties will make you so popular.  ;)

You can go to parties if you know trig?

Of course.  ;D

My personal favorite is doing Calculus problems when I am on an airplane. You have a person on each side of you sitting so close that they cannot help but watch what you are doing.

Them: "Wow. That looks really hard. You must be smart."
Me: "They're not hard. They're actually quite fun. I'll trade you some Calculus problems for your smoked almonds."
