measuring the distance of a star? These experts work using trigonometric calculations. These
                      measurement activities are only part of the application of trigonometry in real life.


                  Let's watch the following video as a start of learning:















                  After watching the video, what do you think about trigonometry and measuring
                  angles? tell the teacher and friends

                         Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that is used to measure the unknown

                      angles and sides of a triangle. Trigonometry is based on the principles of geometry.
                      Many  problems  in  real  life  have  to  be  solved  using  geometry  and  trigonometry.

                      Methods in trigonometry are widely used in the construction of buildings, roads, and
                      bridges. Trigonometry is also used to design cars, trains, airplanes, and ships. The

                      machines in factories that produce the products we need on a daily basis cannot be

                      made without applying trigonometry. Knowledge of trigonometry and the ability to
                      apply it must be possessed by experts from various occupations such as mechanics,

                      surveyors, electricians, architects, and many more.
                         In  simple  terms,  using  trigonometry  means  doing  calculations  related  to  angles.

                      Trigonometry is often used by surveyors, astronauts, scientists, engineers, and even used for
                      investigative  activities.  In  the  fields  of  physics,  engineering,  and  medicine,  trigonometry

                      plays an important role in the development of medical technology and the theories of physics
                      and engineering. In Mathematics, trigonometry is used to find the relationship between the
                      sides of the angles in a triangle.

                         After reading the explanation above, you can see how widely used Trigonometry is in
                      real life. How, interesting? Hopefully you are motivated to study more in Trigonometry,
                      especially learning mathematics as a science student.
