when a body is thrown at an angle in a projectile motion, the vertical component of the velocity is vcos(B) ..where v is the velocity at which the body is thrown and B represents the angle at which it is thrown.Similarly horizontal component is vsin(B). these components are useful in determining the range of the projectile ,the maximum height reached,time of ascent,time of descent etc.,

What is the importance of trigonometry?
Spherical trigonometry is important because the Earth is a sphere, not a plane, so if you wanted to get the distance between one point on Earth and another, plane trigonometry wouldn't give you the right answer. Plane trigonometry can be used to find the height of something without having to climb it, such as a flagpole or skyscraper. Trigonometry, whether spherical or planar, is used in engineering to design buildings, cars, ships, and planes. It is used in physics to calculate the properties of electric and magnetic fields. It is used in navigation, and projectile motion. It is also used in the design of musical chords and instruments, as well as lenses and optics.
Is trigonometry part of calculus?
It is certainly used in calculus, just as calculus can be used in trigonometry.
How is trigonometry used in chemistry?
Trigonometry is used to find the distance and angle of atoms that are bonding. Oh this is for chemistry by the way hope this was helpful. :)
Can trigonometry be used to measure land?
Yes.
How is trigonometry used in ultrasound?
