The trigonometric functions give ratios defined by an angle. Whenever you have an angle and a side in right triangle, you can find all the other angles and sides using the six trigonometric functions and their inverses. The link below demonstrates the relationship between functions.

What is the study of the meaurement of triangles and of trigonometric functions and their applications?
It is trigonometry.
What is Contribution of trigonometry to maths?
Trigonometry originated in ancient times, and was closely related to geometry. It was useful especially in astronomy and navigation. Later on trigonometry led to the idea of sine waves as fundamental for analysing vibrations of all kinds. Trigonometric functions occur in the theory of complex numbers, and now the trig functions turn up in many places in mathematics and its applications, from optics to the theory of alternating current in electrical engineering. The uses of the trig functions have spread far beyond the original ones.
How do nurses uses trigonometry?
Trigonometry helps you to easily read the rate of heart beats of a person and their blood pressure level as well.
Why do you need to study trigonometry?
Trigonometry is essential to the study of higher mathematics (calculus) and to the understanding of many scientific and engineering principles. Trigonometry and calculus can be used to model many shapes, motions, and functions in daily life.
Examples of operations of functions in trigonometry?
Trigonometry includes 12 baisic functions. Sine, Cosine, and Tangent are the three most baisic. Each of those functions has a reciprocal. Cosine's reciprocal is Secant, Sine reciprocal is Cosecant, and Tangent's reciprocal is Cotangent. Each of those six functions has an inverse funcion called Inverse Sine, Cos etc... or Arcsine, Arcosine, Arcsecant, etc.... The shorthand for each function is sin, caos, tan, sec, csc, cot. The inverses have a -1 notation like sin-1.
