Put simply, you don't need to know of, or what a certain field of math is to be able to apply the different fundamentals of it.
As an example. You ever see a basketball player bring out a chalkboard to calculate the trajectory, mass, spin, or force to throw the ball to get it in the basket? No. Over time they all eventually create a physics model in their heads and are able to subconsciously calculate all of that with relative accuracy based on experience, training, and practice. Yet, a lot of those players never took a lick of physics.
