I don’t like the whole layer cake of math that we do. Still, in a traditional geometry course you get a lot of pieces that help with trig and calculus, and an exposure to at least informal proofs.

A whole lot of stuff in AP Stats is a relatively dead end for many people, but geometry and geometric reasoning is necessary for all kinds of engineering-ish math.
