With Halloween upon us I thought it would be fun to tell you about a fact noticed by Steve Wang more than 20 years ago and published in the Journal of Recreational Mathematics (pdf of the paper here).

The mathematical study of triangles has just got a whole lot simpler, according to a researcher who says his new theory of trigonometry is easier to use and more accurate. Associate Professor Norman ...
