Is trigonometry harder than geometry?

Algebra 2/trig is a bit harder. But it is not that bad, as long as you keep up with your work DAILY. I found geometry easier than any of the other math courses in high school. If I were to rank them out in terms of difficulty it would be Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, then Trigonometry.

Is pure math a waste of time?

Originally Answered: Is studying pure mathematics a waste of time as it don’t have any practical application like applied mathematics? Depends. The value of pure mathematics isn’t in applicable use, it’s in the construction of ideas that may or may not become applicable. Applied mathematics answers the “how”.

Is a pure math degree useless?

Of course it’s not worthless. A math degree generally means you have exceptional problem solving skills – skills that can be applied in a great many areas. In fact, that gives you more life options than you would have with an engineering degree.

Is pure maths difficult?

Pure math is much more difficult. Classes in applied math consist of memorizing the steps to solve problems. However, classes in pure math involve proofs, which implies a good understanding of the subject matter is required. In pure math you need to justify everything you do.

Should I study pure or applied math?

pure math is good if you want to teach or go to grad school in any math discipline, pure or applied. applied math as an undergrad, including stats and operations research, are good for going out and getting a job. Useful shorthand: Applied mathematics -> industry (IT, actuary, finance, engineering, etc.)
