Easy stuff. Definitely take it, and take all the math you can. Even as an electrician, it will be helpful for you to be comfortable with trig. You probably don't need to take calculus if you don't want to though.

if u're in Australia like me... The preliminary coarse is like all equations if i remember it rite. If u're good at maths(good memory/solving algebraic) I am sure u will have no problems at all.
