I disagree, Algebra and Geometry are used more than you think. Besides, how would you learn certain Gemaras and Tosfos in Sukka and Eruvin for example without knowledge of Geom. and Trig? Science certainly has practical real-world value e.g. how cleaning agents work, what happens if one were to mix ammonia and bleach. History can help one understand the viewpoint of a Rishon or Achron if you understand the time and environment they lived in. These are just a few examples off the top of my head.
