  7. FAQ About Trigonometry catcode.com/trig/index.html Q: What is trigonometry? A: Trigonometry is the study of how the sides and angles of a triangle are related to each other. Q: WHAT? That’s all? A: Yes, that’s all. It’s all about triangles, and you can’t get much simpler than that. Q: You mean trigonometry isn’t some big, ugly monster that makes students turn green, scream, and die? A: No. It’s just triangles. Q: Oh. But isn’t that boring? A: We’ll try to make it a little more fun by letting you play around with the triangles interactively.
