I see you have never built a chicken coop.

I must be missing something in this comment.

Can someone tell me how chicken coops are related to that ?

One common application of trig is figuring out lengths and angles of triangles. Planning on building anything usually involves triangles.

Building anything requires trigonometry, unless you just say "fuck it" and hope the thing doesn't fall apart, which is a pretty stupid way to live life.

I'm not sure what you're building but you might be over-engineering your wall shelving.

Chicken coops have a ramp for the entrance, so when building it, you need to know the length of the ramp required for the desired angle, as well as making the"rungs" (I don't know what they are actually called) on said ramp flush with the ground.
