This was AppleTrek I believe.  I used to play it all the time on my best 
friends //e before I got mine of course.  When you started you were given a
mission and you could randomly set up the game or select for yourself the
number of starbases "B" Klingons "K".  I remember as a kid trying to figure
out how to move my ship and how to fire in a specified direction.  Believe
me I had no knowledge of angles at the time.

In fact I think that game actually taught me a bit about angles.
