I use them all the time for game development
My dnd group has pulled it out a time or two when cliffs are involved to figure out if you could get line of sight on someone.
We're all engineers of some kind.
Haha that's a great time, love having groups like that
I can't even remember what they're used for
Trigonometry, they're used extensively in 3d programming
Also 2d programming. Fourier transforms for audio and image processing? You fucking bet. Basically, if it has graphics or audio, it uses sinusoids.

Damn near everything.
