My answer: Fuck this just give me a rifle and point me towards the enemy lines!
i guess these would be difficult back when most people haven't finished primary school, but these are just basic high school math problems. you just need to know properties of logarithm and a little bit of trigonometry.
In a way, true.
How is the education system in your country?
In my country India, sin, cos, tan, log etc. are introduced in high school, 8^th^ or 9^th^standard.
Though, the knowledge with the identities that'd be needed to solve the problems would be taught for those who chose the Science stream for the 11^th^ and 12^th^ standard(We call it Higher Secondary, students would be 16 - 17 years old).
So, most people who took +2 Science would be able to solve this.

I asked the question because I wanted to know if high school means the same as we have it here, in India.
im in iran and our education system is piss wrapped inside shit. we learn these in 10th and 11th grade (15 - 17 yo) for science and math students, and basically you should be able to solve each of these under 45 seconds for your university entrance exam (although it's multiple choice so a little bit easier than full explanation).
i doubt most people would be able to solve these after high school because the stress of the university entrance exam will make sure your brain forgets all this stuff as a protection mechanism to prevent PTSD flashbacks.
lol from your description it's still better than in the west
im sorry but it's really not. it's miserable as hell.
Why is that? What is it like?
well aside from shitty teachers, under funding and crowded class rooms, lack of any extracurricular activity besides maybe playing football on asphalt and the mostly failed but constant attempts at indoctrination, at best it's like the Gaokao situation in china, where all your childhood is spent for studying for this massive hard exam at the end, and the society including your parents (if you have any) are constantly drilling it into your head that you would be nothing if you don't get into a good university. it's a marathon of pressure and mental abuse from every corner. people either give in, lash out or outright break.
and nobody does anything about it because of capitalism. education is now a very profitable industry. everyone knows that the education system is fucked but any attempt at reform is met with resistance from publishers fearing losing book sales and tutor and private exam companies losing sales (we call them "Konkour mafia", Konkour is the name of our university entrance exam).
Thanks for the insight comrade. Sounds indeed an order of magnitude shittier than my western education.
So our countries are similar in that aspect, I guess.
I actually like this. I'm not a very fast test taker. I like to see derivations n all and the step-by-step process of solving.
I was lucky with a really good teacher teaching the basics during highschool.
