Question

Right, so for math and science I was always given a memory aid, but personally I feel like it's cheating. Is it bad if I still have to use a memory aid in math? (Trigonometry, matrices, statistics). I'm 20.

No way you can remember all the things in the whle world over the course of your entire life without a memory aid of some kind. Hell, we get notifications on our phones DAILY for this reason. You're fineeeee

I'm 32 and use memory aids all the time. I have a whole system of reminders like stickies, calendar events, I have an app on my phone that supposedly helps with that too. If you take meds, those count and I would never say someone was "cheating" by taking them.

It's not cheating to use a resource to help you do your job effectively. Do you think Googling anything is cheating?
