The most significant accomplishment that I have achieved is that I was the valedictorian of my class for three semesters. Valedictorian, or the first in the class, is one the biggest accomplishments that a highschooler can get in the sense that it proves that your at the top of your game and that you have the best grades. I was the valedictorian of my class for my whole sophomore year and for the first half of my junior year. I then dropped back down to second in my class. While being valedictorian

picture!) b. You also notice that Polaris shifts from being 49 degrees north of zenith to 39 degrees from zenith during this journey. Is Polaris the same distance from the flat Earth as Algol, in the flat-Earth scenario? (somewhat tricky algebra/trigonometry required here) 3. Suppose you had a watch that always told you the local solar time. How fast (km per hour or miles per hour) would you have to run around the equator to make the watch stand still? Which direction would you be

mathematician G.H. Hardy, in the same league as mathematicians like Euler and Gauss.[1] Born in a poor Brahmin family, Ramanujan's introduction to formal mathematics began at age 10. He demonstrated a natural ability, and was given books on advanced trigonometry written by S. L. Loney that he mastered by the age of 12; he even discovered theorems of his own, and re-discoveredEuler's identity independently.[2] He demonstrated unusual mathematical skills at school, winning accolades and awards. By 17, Ramanujan

I. Sergeant Humphreys, Milton W. A. A Noncommissioned Officer’s Beginning B. A New Concept On September 14, 1844 Milton Wylie Humphreys was born at Anthony's Creek, Va. As he grew into a child, his teachers discovered that Humphreys' intelligence was strongly rooted in mathematics. While still in grade school, using the flat side of large rock formations as a chalk board, he solved complex math equations. In 1860, he furthered his education by attending Washington College in

total to a thousand dollars. Next, books this is probably cost you more than you think. My friend that goes to UK pays around three hundred dollars for his books and that is for engineering classes. Imagine regular classes like chemistry and trigonometry. Worst part is you have to pay for books with your own money, yes you can get a loan but you still have to pay it back. My brother spent one hundred and thirty five dollars on a book he only used once and he could not pass the class without that

Math in auto racing Mathematics is found everywhere in life and work and auto racing is no exception. There are many applications of math in racing. The purpose of racing is to win and in order to do that there must be a lot of math involved. If you don’t use math and use it correctly then you will not win. Mathematics is involved in racing in two ways, the car setup and scoring an measurements. The car setup involves tire pressure, down force, wedge, aerodynamic Drag
