Featured Article: Milovan Djilas Milovan Đjilas, 1950 Milovan Djilas or Đilas (June 4, 1911 – April 20, 1995) was a Montenegrin Serb, Communist politician, theorist, and author in Yugoslavia. He was a key figure in the Partisan movement during the World War II as well as in the post war government. His book, The New Class was a devastating critique of Soviet-style communist bureaucracies which claimed to have created a classless society but had merely replaced the bureaucrats of the old system with those of the communist system. Djulas was widely hailed in the West for his sober analysis of the ideological failings of the communist system. Popular Article: Trigonometry All of the trigonometric functions of an angle θ can be constructed geometrically in terms of a unit circle centered at O. Trigonometry (from Greek Τριγωνομετρία "tri = three" + "gon = angle" + "metr[y] = to measure") is a branch of mathematics that deals with triangles, particularly those plane triangles in which one angle has 90 degrees (right triangles). Trigonometry deals with relationships between the sides and the angles of triangles and with the trigonometric functions, which describe those relationships. Trigonometry has applications in both pure mathematics and in applied mathematics, where it is essential in many branches of science and technology.
