COS() Computes the cosine ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Syntax COS(<nArc>) --> nCosine Argument <nArc> Designates a radian value for which the cosine is determined. Returns COS() returns the cosine value specified in <nArc>. Description COS() computes the angle cosine measured in radians. Note . If you want the values specified in degrees, you can convert them with the DTOR() function. Example Compute the cosine: ? STR(COS(0), 18, 15) // 1.000000000000000 ? STR(COS(PI() /4), 18, 15) // 0.707106781186548 ? STR(COS(PI() /2), 18, 15) // 0.000000000000000 ? STR(COS(PI() *99.5), 18, 15) // 0.000000000000000 ? STR(COS(PI() /9), 18, 15) // 0.939692620785908
