Just remember SOHCAHTOA,
SOH is using the sine, only use this when you have the Hypotenuse and the Opposite.
Sin(a)= O/H
CAH is using the cosine, only use this when you have the Hypotenuse and Adjasent.
Cos(a)=A/H
TOA is using the tangent, only use this when you have the Opposite and Adjasent.
Tan(a)=O/A
Not specifically trigonometry, but functions in general. As a general rule, functions must be evaluated before using the results in other parts of the calcuation.
plane trigonometry spherical trigonometry
The main kinds are plane trigonometry and solid trigonometry. The latter will include trigonometry in hyper-spaces.
The answer depends on what information you do have. If you have all three sides, you use the cosine rule to find any one of the angles and then use the sine rule to find the other two.
Hipparchus is the father of trigonometry.

A slide rule is used for multiplication and division and it can also be used for trigonometry. It can also be used in money fields such as accounting.

It is a number - in trigonometry or elsewhere.
TRIGONOMETRY
Hipparchus is the father of trigonometry.
Trigonometry is applied in construction and building, as trigonometry measures right angled triangles.
Plane trigonometry is trigonometry carried out in (on) a plane. This could be contrasted with spherical trigonometry, which is trigonometry carried out on the surface of a sphere. Certainly there are some other more complex forms of trig.
Trigonometry based on a unit circle and radians and trigonometry based on a right triangle.
