Trigonometric functions have their roots in ancient civilizations, with contributions from various cultures. The earliest known use of trigonometric concepts can be traced to the Greeks, particularly Hipparchus in the 2nd century BCE, who compiled a trigonometric table. However, the systematic development of these functions occurred in India between the 5th and 7th centuries CE, with key figures like Aryabhata and Brahmagupta. The functions were later further refined and popularized in the Islamic Golden Age by mathematicians such as Al-Battani and Al-Khwarizmi.
There are three types of trigonometric functions, they are: 1- Plane Trigonometric Functions 2- Inverse Trigonometric Functions and 3- Hyperbolic Trigonometric Functions
With ease, I suppose. The question depends on what you consider easy trigonometric functions.
Euler published the formula, which relates complex exponentials to trigonometric functions in 1748. See related link.
Vectors.
Trigonometric identities involve certain functions of one or more angles. These identities are useful whenever expressions involving trigonometric functions need to be simplified.

There are several topics under the broad category of trigonometry. * Angle measurements * Properties of angles and circles * Basic trigonometric functions and their reciprocals and co-functions * Graphs of trigonometric functions * Trigonometric identities * Angle addition and subtraction formulas for trigonometric functions * Double and half angle formulas for trigonometric functions * Law of sines and law of cosines * Polar and polar imaginary coordinates.

You can use them to find the sides and angles of a right triangle... just like regular trigonometric functions

The sine and cosine are both trigonometric functions. Trigonometric calculations are used in many branches of engineering.
