British Concorde goes for big 40

On April 9th, 1969, the British had their fun with the Concorde prototype. On March 2nd, the French had their first flight in the Concorde and of the type itself. It has been 40 years since these flights. For 27 years, the Concorde has established itself as the premier SST of the world since it's conception. Now, 13 years later, the Concorde is scattered about in museiums all over the world.

To the aircrews, the engineers, and all involved with Concorde: cheers on your brainchild's 40th!

Today in HIstory.....

Today, we are learning about the anchient civilizations of Mezo-america. The area of Mezo-america encompasses the region of modern day Guatamala, costa rica, el salvador, and the Yucatan peninsula of mexico. Mezo-america is a term used to describe this region before Western contact. The Mezo-american civilizations that are particularly worth of note are the Olmech, The Toltech, The maya, the Aztech, and the Incans.

Today in Math....

Today, we are learning basic trigometry in Mr. Zirpoli's geometry class. We are learning how to find the magnitute of a vector (aka. the distance of the vector between two points) and where to find the direction of the vector. To find the magnitute of the vector, simply input the two points of the given vector into the distance formula. The resulting output is your magnitute of the vector. To find the direction of the vector, look at the vector and the direction that the vector is pointing to. You then explain where the arrow is pointing at.
