What famous greek mathematician contributed a great deal to trigonometry?
It was Pythagoras
What do engineers use trigonometry for?
Engineers use trigonometry anywhere that involves non-right angles. That includes building cars and buildings, bridges, and many other structures. they also use trigonometry when dealing with fields, like magnetic and electric fields. Also, trigonometry is very important with engineers who deal with waves, such as sound or light engineers.
Do I need to be good at math to take a drafting class?
The course work in drafting requires a great deal of knowledge in calculus, trigonometry and geometry. If you have a limited exposure to these fields, try to get some additional coursework in the areas of math.
What is an informal word for a great deal?
Slang words for a "great deal" (a large amount) are a lot, a ton, plenty, or a bunch. Slang words for a "great deal" (bargain) could be a buy or a steal.
Enumerate the applications of trigonometry of different fields?
Trigonometry is used in many jobs! Trigonometry is used in forestry(to calculate height of trees), A variety of Engineering jobs, Coast Guards and Flight Coordinators use Trigonometry with vector math to deal with movement through water/air currents. Carpenters need to know basic trigonometry. Any job dealing with any type of waves(sound waves, the pattern that the tide follows) has to know about Trigonometric Functions. I could keep listing jobs but the basics are: 1) any job that involves practical design(meaning not fashion design) 2) any job that requires basic physics or calculus 3) any job that requires basic high school math Trigonometry shows up everywhere, in order to be good with numbers, you have to be good with trigonometry
