Question 146034: Use either the fundamental counting principle or the permutation formulas (or both) to answer the following:
In how many different ways can you arrange the letters of the word TRIGONOMETRY?

From the word TRIGONOMETRY, we are asked to find every possible arrangement using the letters found in the word.

We have twelve letters total, but only nine different letters. (There are three repeating letters which we will account for in the denominator).

Using the formula for permutation, we have:



Which gives us an answer of 59875200
