TangentMath

The name TangentMath was inspired by a lighthearted classroom moment. During a lesson, a pupil once asked me about the tan() button on a calculator. I explained that it represents tangent, a concept from secondary school trigonometry. Amused, he began calling me Mr. Tangent instead of Mr. Tan—and over time, that nickname inspired the name of my learning centre, TangentMath.
