I constantly use all sorts of math to solve shop problems.
I've got a 16 year old kid that helps me sometimes. I'm trying to teach him how to use a tape measure.
He's in the 11th grade. It's sad.
If he learns that, I'll start teaching him to convert fractions to decimals.
He's a great kid though and doesn't mind working.
He just never had a Dad around to make sure he was learning the things that he will need later.

I own an electrical contracting business and I'm a firefighter. Geometry, algebra, trigonometry every day. Electricity and hydraulics have very similar calculations whether its figuring voltage drop over a 300' run of wire or adjusting pump pressure to have 120 psi at a nozzle on a 4-story standpipe system.
My nephew is getting ready to take LEAP tests next week and is top 3 in his class. I told him when he hears classmates say, "I'm never gonna need to use this," just think "I'm gonna make more money than that guy."
