Amongst the lay public of non-mathematicians and non-scientists, trigonometry is known chiefly for its application to measurement problems, yet is also often used in ways that are far more subtle, such as its place in the [[music theory|theory of music]]; still other uses are more technical, such as in [[number theory]]. The mathematical topics of [[Fourier series]] and [[Fourier transforms]] rely heavily on knowledge of trigonometric functions and find application in a number of areas, including [[statistics]].

==Thomas Paine's statement of the uses of trigonometry==
 
In  Chapter XI of [[The Age of Reason]], the American revolutionary and [[Age of Enlightenment|Enlightenment]] thinker [[Thomas Paine]] wrote<ref>Paine, Thomas, ''The Age of Reason'', Dover Publications, 2004, p. 52.</ref>  
 
:''The scientific principles that man employs to obtain the foreknowledge of an eclipse, or of any thing else relating to the motion of the heavenly bodies, are contained chiefly in that part of science that is called trigonometry, or the properties of a triangle, which, when applied to the study of the heavenly bodies, is called astronomy; when applied to direct the course of a ship on the ocean, it is called navigation; when applied to the construction of figures drawn by a ruler and compass, it is called geometry; when applied to the construction of plans of edifices, it is called architecture; when applied to the measurement of any portion of the surface of the earth, it is called land-surveying. In fine, it is the soul of science. It is an eternal truth: it contains the ''mathematical demonstration'' of which man speaks, and the extent of its uses are unknown.
 
==Some modern uses==
 
Scientific fields that make use of trigonometry include:
 
:[[acoustics]], [[architecture]], [[astronomy]], [[cartography]], [[civil engineering]],  [[geophysics]], [[crystallography]],  [[electrical engineering]], [[electronics]], land [[surveying]] and [[geodesy]], many [[physical science]]s, [[mechanical engineering]], [[machining]], [[medical imaging]] ,  [[number theory]], [[oceanography]], [[optics]], [[pharmacology]], [[probability theory]], [[seismology]], [[statistics]], and [[visual perception]]
 
That these fields involve trigonometry does not mean knowledge of trigonometry is needed in order to learn anything about them.  It ''does'' mean that ''some'' things in these fields cannot be understood without trigonometry. For example, a professor of [[music]] may perhaps know nothing of mathematics, but would probably know that [[Pythagoras]] was the earliest known contributor to the mathematical theory of music.
 
In ''some'' of the fields of endeavor listed above it is easy to imagine how trigonometry could be used.  For example, in navigation and land surveying, the occasions for the use of trigonometry are in at least some cases simple enough that they can be described in a beginning trigonometry textbook.  In the case of music theory, the application of trigonometry is related to work begun by Pythagoras, who observed that the sounds made by plucking two strings of different lengths are consonant if both lengths are small integer multiples of a common length.  The resemblance between the shape of a vibrating string and the graph of the [[sine]] function is no mere coincidence.  In oceanography, the resemblance between the shapes of some [[wave]]s and the graph of the sine function is also not coincidental.  In some other fields, among them [[climatology]], biology, and economics, there are seasonal periodicities. The study of these often involves the periodic nature of the sine and cosine function.
 
===Fourier series===
 
Many fields make use of trigonometry in more advanced ways than can be discussed in a single article.  Often those involve what are called [[Fourier series]], after the 18th- and 19th-century French mathematician and physicist [[Jean Baptiste Joseph Fourier|Joseph Fourier]]. Fourier series have a surprisingly diverse array of applications in many scientific fields, in particular in all of the phenomena involving seasonal periodicities mentioned above, and in wave motion, and hence in the study of radiation, of acoustics, of seismology, of modulation of radio waves in electronics, and of electric power engineering.
 
A Fourier series is a sum of this form:
 
: <math> \square + \underbrace{\square \cos\theta + \square\sin\theta}_1 + \underbrace{\square \cos(2\theta) + \square\sin(2\theta)}_2 + \underbrace{\square \cos(3\theta) + \square\sin(3\theta)}_3 + \cdots \, </math>
 
where each of the squares (<math>\square</math>) is a different number, and one is adding infinitely many terms. Fourier used these for studying [[heat]] flow and [[diffusion]] (diffusion is the process whereby, when you drop a sugar cube into a gallon of water, the sugar gradually spreads through the water, or a pollutant spreads through the air, or any dissolved substance spreads through any fluid).
 
Fourier series are also applicable to subjects whose connection with wave motion is far from obvious.  One ubiquitous example is [[data compression|digital compression]] whereby [[image compression|images]], [[audio compression (data)|audio]] and [[video compression|video]] data are compressed into a much smaller size which makes their transmission feasible over [[telephone]], [[internet]] and [[Broadcasting|broadcast]] [[computer network|networks]]. Another example, mentioned above, is diffusion.  Among others are: the [[geometry of numbers]], [[isoperimetry|isoperimetric problems]], recurrence of [[random walk]]s, [[quadratic reciprocity]], the [[central limit theorem]], [[Heisenberg's inequality]].
 
===Fourier transforms===
 
A more abstract concept than Fourier series is the idea of [[Fourier transform]].  Fourier transforms involve [[integral]]s rather than sums, and are used in a similarly diverse array of scientific fields. Many natural laws are expressed by relating ''rates of change'' of quantities to the quantities themselves.  For example:  The rate of change of population is sometimes jointly proportional to (1) the present population and (2) the amount by which the present population falls short of the [[carrying capacity]].  This kind of relationship is called a [[differential equation]].  If, given this information, one tries to express population as a function of time, one is trying to "solve" the differential equation.  Fourier transforms may be used to convert some differential equations to algebraic equations for which methods of solving them are known. Fourier transforms have many uses.  In almost any scientific context in which the words spectrum, [[harmonic]], or [[resonance]] are encountered, Fourier transforms or Fourier series are nearby.
 
===Statistics, including mathematical psychology===
 
Intelligence quotients are sometimes held to be distributed according to the [[normal distribution|bell-shaped curve]]. About 40% of the area under the curve is in the interval from 100 to 120; correspondingly, about 40% of the population scores between 100 and 120 on IQ tests. Nearly 9% of the area under the curve is in the interval from 120 to 140; correspondingly, about 9% of the population scores between 120 and 140 on IQ tests, etc.  Similarly many other things are distributed according to the "bell-shaped curve", including measurement errors in many physical measurements.  Why the ubiquity of the "bell-shaped curve"?  There is a theoretical reason for this, and it involves Fourier transforms and hence [[trigonometric function]]s.  That is one of a variety of applications of Fourier transforms to [[statistics]].
 
Trigonometric functions are also applied when statisticians study seasonal periodicities, which are often represented by Fourier series.
 
===Number theory===
There is a hint of a connection between trigonometry and number theory. Loosely speaking, one could say that number theory deals with qualitative properties rather than quantitative properties of numbers. A central concept in number theory is "divisibility" (example: 42 is divisible by 14 but not by 15).  The idea of putting a fraction in lowest terms also uses the concept of divisibility: e.g., 15/42 is not in lowest terms because 15 and 42 are both divisible by 3. Look at the sequence of fractions
 
:<math>
\frac{1}{42}, \qquad \frac{2}{42}, \qquad \frac{3}{42}, \qquad
\dots\dots, \qquad \frac{39}{42}, \qquad \frac{40}{42}, \qquad
\frac{41}{42}.
</math>
 
Discard the ones that are not in lowest terms; keep only those that are in lowest terms:
 
:<math>
\frac{1}{42}, \qquad \frac{5}{42}, \qquad \frac{11}{42}, \qquad
\dots, \qquad \frac{31}{42}, \qquad \frac{37}{42}, \qquad
\frac{41}{42}.
</math>
 
Then bring in trigonometry:
 
:<math>
\cos\left(2\pi\cdot\frac{1}{42}\right)+
\cos\left(2\pi\cdot\frac{5}{42}\right)+
\cdots+
\cos\left(2\pi\cdot\frac{37}{42}\right)+
\cos\left(2\pi\cdot\frac{41}{42}\right)
</math>
 
The value of the sum is −1, because 42 has an ''odd'' number of prime factors and none of them is repeated: 42 = 2 × 3 × 7. (If there had been an ''even'' number of non-repeated factors then the sum would have been 1) if there had been any repeated prime factors (e.g., 60 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 5) then the sum would have been 0; the sum is the [[Möbius function]] evaluated at 42.)  This hints at the possibility of applying [[Fourier analysis]] to number theory.
 
===Solving non-trigonometric equations===
 
Various types of [[equation]]s can be solved using trigonometry. For example, a [[Recurrence relation#General methods|linear difference equation]] or [[Differential equation#Exact solutions|differential equation]] with constant coefficients has solutions expressed in terms of the [[eigenvalue]]s of its characteristic equation; if some of the eigenvalues are [[Complex number|complex]], the complex terms can be replaced by trigonometric functions of real terms, showing that the dynamic variable exhibits [[oscillations]]. Similarly, [[Cubic function#Trigonometric (and hyperbolic) method|cubic equations]] with three real solutions have an [[algebraic solution]] that is unhelpful in that it contains cube roots of complex numbers; again an alternative solution exists in terms of trigonometric functions of real terms.
