In most cases, they can be used in the same way, but "trust" has a little more emotional attachment than "believe."
I trust you. = I've known you for a long time and you have proven yourself to be a trustworthy person.
I believe you = It is reasonable to think that you are right.

believe is accepting the truth or thinking something is true
trust is being more reliable on something or someone, more hopeful
i believe you ≠ i trust you
i believe you (to think that what you say is true)
i trust you (to have faith in you)
