They're used to access keys which won't physically fit on a laptop
keyboard, such as the numeric keypad, NumLock, ScrollLock etc., and
(along with function keys) to control hardware-specific functions like
switching between internal and external display, turning bluetooth and
wlan on and off, adjusting the backlight brightness, etc.
