    wow that looks great... i'm definitely checking into it. thanks

    i am a trigonometry novice so perhaps this is a good intro into the field. I am extremely interested in why certain maths are done, what led to them, the broader aspects of how/why they operate and so on... and especially being able to comprehend it in a visual way. simply memorizing formulas and how to solve problems seems pointless without the higher context of knowing why youre doing it.

    So, perhaps some implications of this include a more intuitive understanding of trigonometry and it's place in understanding the underlying fabric of nature's language.
