Cos Function

Returns the cosine of the given angle.

Syntax

result = Cos( value )

Parameters

value

Double

The value (in radians) you want the cosine of.

Return Value

Result

Double

The cosine of value.

Notes


The Cos function returns the cosine of the angle (in radians) passed to it. If the angle is in degrees, multiply it by PI/180 to convert it to radians.


Examples

This example uses the Cos function to return the cosine of an angle.

Dim d as Double
Const PI=3.14159
d=Cos(45*PI/180) //returns 0.707
