Solution

Dear student
trigonometry (noun), trigonometric (adjective): the first part of the word is from Greek trigon "triangle". The second part of trigonometry is from Greek metron "a measure." The Indo-European root is probably mean- "to measure." Trigonometry is literally the measuring (of angles and sides) of triangles.
