(Parody of Gettin' Jiggy Wit It by Will Smith)
Westerville South High School, Westerville, Ohio
On your mark ready set let's go
Trigonometry pro I know you know
I go psycho when I see a triangle
just can't sit
gotta get triggy wit it
uhh that's it
three angles, three sides
T-R-I-G all up in my eye
SOH-CAH-TOA will tell you where to go
you just gotta know about H, A, and O
everybody lookin' at it
glance at the box
the H-Y-P
is sittin' across
theta-theta is after eta-eta
pencil on it
it's for the look I don't mark it
the side you ain't touching is the O-P-P
makin' it triggy, we want you to see
yo, what's that last side ya say?
it's gotta be the A-D-J
Gettin' Triggy Wit It
(Chorus 4x)
na na na na na na na nana
na na na na nana
Gettin' Triggy Wit It
What, you want to solve with the Trig?
watch your step you might fall
trying to work this gig
Soh Cah-uh Soh Cah-uh, Soh-Cah, Soh-Cah Toa
in the middle of the problem, don't know which one? huh?
You gotta know which angles and sides,
that are missin' and given in the problem, they're the guides
you can come with me, all these problems I've tried!
heard it's hard? well then somebody lied.
It's SOH CAH TOA
Helps you to study so ya Know-a,
When to use each one
If you got the O and H-Y-P
SOH lets you know
sine's the way to go
let's say now you got the HYP
and the A-D-J,
then cosine's the way
yes yes y'all
but there's one more
you got the legs, (no hypotenuse)
that makes its tan
Gettin' Triggy Wit It
(Chorus)
Roll with me right now, if you need a side
You gotta know two things
O.K. let's ride.
You need an angle and one of the sides
Issue is, where does x reside?
You see it up high
That's how you know to multiply
So easy you did it on your own first try
Trig to the maximum, I be askin 'em
How bout the one time when ya gotta use da-vis-ion
Only if X is down below,
X and the angle will switch, ya' know
Last case
its angle finding time
so let's get it
Trust that theta is the goal, get it alone
Calculators will know, when I say go
Take the inverse of the numbers on the right
Hit equals and show it off
Now you got it
Gettin' Triggy Wit It
(Chorus)
