triangle is first of all a polygon i.e. a shape with many sides so there are many other shapes and they are named by the number of sides they have like

4 sides-quadrilateral

5-pentagon

6-hexagon

7-heptagon

8-octagon

9-nonagon

10-decagon

12-dodecagon

similarly there are circles which have no sides at all.

What is the study of hexagons if trigonometry is the study of triangles?

Hexagons are only combined triangles and would demonstrate the same functions and relationships as triangles. Geometry is the study of all shapes. This includes hexagons. Trigonometry developed much later than geometry for applying the study of triangles to practical application.


How are geometry and trigonometry different?

Geometry is the study of spatial properties (shapes, sizes, etc.), while trigonometry is the study of triangles and the relationships between angles and lengths.


What was trigonometry originally used for?

The same as it is now : measurement of angles and the lengths of the sides of triangular shapes. More complex shapes ha to be broken down into triangles.


Why Would you need Trigonometry in architecture?

trigonometry underlies all calculations about forces dat must be calculated so that buildings are stable and dont collapse . regular flat shapes like squares , pentagon, hexagons can be made out of triangles and so trigonometry plays and role in artitechure and egyptian pyramids
