"Trigonometry" comes from the Greek words trigonon and metron, and roughly translates to "the measurement of angles".
Mechanics use trigonometry to find angles mostly used in body or chassis work.
They use it to measure angles and lengths
In construction, Trigonometry is used to show how stress and force are directed along supports which are not vertical or horizontal. It is alos used to find the lengths of such components of a building, as well as the angles between parts.
