Harold,
I do not do much more than right triangle trigonometry, and my algebra
students although they struggle can handle the math.  We do so much with
RealTime Physics that these kids understand the meaning of vectors and just
go with it.
Actually, I think the other way is harder because the kids don't have a
clue about the system they are trying to work with.  It's just a math
problem.  But, this is my opinion.
