Algebra can be used in most mathematical areas and there are literally thousands of jobs that use mathematics.

Pythagorus is used by such people as engineers, pilots and navigators, to name but a few.

More power to your hypoteneuse!!

Formula is a formula, and you can never scramble your answer or else everything is wrong.
Thanks for your reply Ma'm Charlwill....I definitely agree...
Not scramble as in "chopsuey and halo-halo"also used in tagalog expressions...
