so is anyone else screwed like me?

If they throw in any long answer questions on stupid triangles, bearings where we gotta construct the triangle (then work out the stupid depression elevation crap), or even retarded shapes, me screwed.

Is anyone else on the same boat as me so i can feel a tad better? :d

i know the basics of trig, but its confusing when to use the area of triangle (sine formula)

cosine is two sides one angle, sine is two angles one side? something like that right?

it shouldnt be confusing to decide which one, i dont even know which one to use I just look at the formulae sheet and see which formula i can fill in
