    of direction! As years bypass, you would be able to desire to locate a job that specifically makes a speciality of geometry like shape workers, carpenters etc... So confident, you will possibly have some component that enables geometry. in certainty, that's between the main needed mathematic skills we could constantly understand! That develop right into a super question! :D

    If you deside to get a job as a carpenter or achitect maybe.

    If feels like most of the 'higher' maths are for people who plan on teaching it.

    A vicious cycle.

    Most people do not use geometry in their everyday lives, but the critical thinking skills you gain from this class are important to your future.

    Only helpful if you're going into engineering. I'm a Journalism major in college so it's useless to me. I took it my sophomore year of high school.

    Ask the architect who designed the house you live in if he/she used geometry in order to do this...

    the better question is "when will we ever use logs, exponentials and the Integrals of trig functions?"

    maths in year 12 is so pointless

    I think that we just need the basics. Basically, all the math you learn after middle school is useless.
