It can be used to measure height of a tower.
It is used in mechanics to understand motion of particles.
And much more.

This is true if you are doing what most people consider "math". However, trig is actually a very, very tiny part of "math" as it really exists. I thought I would suck at math because I hated trig, but it turns out I love analysis (so far anyway), which opens the door to much of higher math. Once I understood trig was not the be-all-end-all of math, I really opened up to it.
