Trig Happy

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Trigonometry is one of the most hated subjects in school. Huw Williams ignored trig when he was being educated, but now finds that not only is it a vital tool in astronomy, map-making and navigation, but it also helps chemists to design new drugs, choreographers to craft new dance steps, and instrument-makers to create better harps and harpsichords.
