If you think this is forced, you should read one of “The Easy Way” math books, like https://www.thriftbooks.com/w/barrons-trigonometry-the-easy-...

Fictional kingdom discovers Trigonometry out of necessity.

Trigonometry The Easy Way, was brilliant! I wouldn't categorize it as forced in the manner of the OP. The book creates a fantasy backdrop to connect trigonometrical concepts in a fun way. I really enjoyed the book and it made trigonometry really stick in my brain!
