Examples of Sin/Cos/Tan

PurpleMetro:

I always noticed there were these math functions: Sin, Cos, and Tan.

I know they have something to do with right triangles, and dividing the sides, but can anybody give me an example of them being used in BL?

Altiris:

Sin cos and tan I believe are used to find sides or certain sides of a triangle (negative sin cos and tan I think are for the degrees). So basically if you know one or two of the lengths of a ramp in Blockland you can use sin cos and tan...sort of...you also need to know the angle measurement of the triangle.

I don't really think you use sin/cos/tan to find things in Blockland.

Jesus christ op, why wouldn't you google this? Those are trigonometric functions, a widespread way of doing geometric math that's used for almost everything ever. You act like they're only used in blockland
