    3 subjects

    WAM-wise, no disadvantage. It's more relaxing and gives you time to do other things. However you won't be up to date with the courses your friends might be doing and it'll take longer to graduate if that's an issue at all. Don't think that it'll automatically mean you'll get a better WAM though...

    discrete maths math1081 worth doing

    I enjoyed it. It was quite different from our calculus-based HSC courses. What degree are you doing? Do you like set theory, number theory, probability / permutations & combinations, proving things?

    exact values

    Lol I didn't draw out the whole thing, it actually doesn't take long if you just imagine the circle in your head. I have to do this because I have terrible memory :(
  15. P

    exact values

    Here's an alternative way - check out this fancy pic of the unit circle: To use this, you just need to know that because sin = opposite / hypotenuse, in the unit circle sin = y/1. [The hypotenuse is the radius of the unit circle, which is 1] (Similarly, cos = x/1 and tan = y/x) E.g. sin(0)...
