My high school maths touched on surveying, which is all geometry and trigonometry. Map your school, the nearby playing field or shops or whatever and calculate boundary lengths or areas of various features. For senior high school students, what about studying a bit of the maths involved in GPS? Techniques used in triangulation and estimating error, for example. You may want to include relativistic effects such as frequency shifts and time corrections for your best students. -- Sam Couter | mailto:s...@couter.id.au OpenPGP fingerprint: A46B 9BB5 3148 7BEA 1F05 5BD5 8530 03AE DE89 C75C
