If you work in engineering, you'll need trigonometry, and other advanced math topics, all the time. Otherwise, you can come along quite well without it, and will seldom find any practical use for it.

Loads and loads of formulas. That's trigonometry. ;-)
Trigonometry is used in design of everything from buildings to instruments to appliances. It is also used in electronics, acoustics, EM radiation, flight, navigation, projectile motion, and nearly every every application of waves and forces in physics and engineering.

Trigonometry is used in the fields of design, music, navigation, cartography, manufacturing, physics, optics, projectile motion, and any other field which involves angles, fields, waves, harmonics, and vectors.
A real-life example of an ellipse is the path that some heavenly bodies travel in space. Earth's path around the sun is elliptical.Informally, a flattened circle. You can read the Wikipedia article for a more formal definition, as well as to investigate its different properties.
