You know when you zone out in math class and wonder, when will I ever actually use this in real life? Well, one genius college student actually found a pretty sick way to make trigonometry cool again: she calculated the angle of her dab.

It all started on Friday afternoon, when Anicca Harriot, a 20-year-old student at Regent University in Virginia, took a walk through a park near campus with her friends between classes. They took this picture:
