RE: Pascal's Triangle - The "Swiss Army Knife" of Mathematical Tools

Yep, its really just a silly memorization phrase. Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse , Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse, Tan = Adjacent/Hypotenuse.

Last year, I found out some students were using "Some Old Hippie Caught Another Hippie Tripping On Acid". I laughed at that one, but didn't endorse it for obvious reasons.
