I am feeling a little bit more smart after revising Physics :p
A Mexican farmer standing on a 1m platform fires a taco from his Juan Direction taco launcher from a height of 1.3m above the ground at a speed of 444m/s.

If the border patrol is at a distance of 1271m, with the centre of the border patrol target a height of 0.9m above the ground, calculate the angle that the farmer must launch the taco in order to hit the centre of the target.

Question stolen from FizzyCyst :)

Far out - how does one enjoy mathematics?

I've spent literally 6 hours looking at numbers and omg, Its changed my personality.

Between that and waiting for my slack teachers to email me my half yearly results (come on - the first one was almost 3 weeks ago..), I feel like smashing something.

I'm going to bed until it's dinner time. I might cry myself to sleep.

So the modern exam (at the last minute) has been changed to thursday and the Bio exam has been moved up to 9am tomorrow morning.
I have a specialist's appointment, which I told the modern teacher about, but since the bio is in place of that (which I only found out about today) I could only tell the supervisor today.
She was annoyed, and told me I needed to tell her earlier and I can't do that.

I talked to the principal and he said it would be ok as long as I bring in a doctor's certificate and come to school straight after to sit it.
legit dying rn tho

I just emailed the supervisor, and if she says I can't do that then I will just have to miss the exam.
