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.
