Yep .Opposite side of a triangle divided by the hypotenuse is the sine, adjacent side divided by hypotenuse is cosine to get the included angle. I use tangent more. Then you go to the trig tables to get the angle or work back from the angle if you already know that. The advanced algebra is a mystery to me

CAD systems on a computer (Drawing)and surveying packages - use Analytic geometry or also called coordinate geometry of which every coordinate point is a product of a right angle -- thus -- trigonometry is part of the system---- Never got into 3D but it's got to be used in the Z axis
