How to Use the Tangent Calculator

This calculator is designed to help you find the tangent, sine, and cosine values of a given angle, as well as convert the angle into radians. Follow the steps below to use the Tangent Calculator effectively.

Step 1: Enter the Angle

Input Field: Angle (in degrees)

  • Locate the input field labeled “Angle (in degrees)”.
  • Enter an angle value. The input must be a number within the range -360 to 360 degrees.
  • You can enter the angle in increments of 0.1 for precise measurements.
  • This field is required, so make sure to provide a valid angle.

Step 2: Select Decimal Precision

Input Field: Decimal Precision

  • Find the dropdown menu labeled “Decimal Precision.”
  • Select your preferred level of decimal precision for your results. Available options are:
    • 2 decimal places
    • 4 decimal places
    • 6 decimal places
    • 8 decimal places
  • This field is required, so make sure to select an option.

Step 3: Review the Results

Once you have entered the angle and selected the decimal precision, the calculator will compute the following results:

  • Tangent Value: Located in the result field labeled “Tangent Value.” It uses the calculation `tan(angle * π / 180)` to give the tangent of the input angle.
  • Sine Value: Find it under “Sine Value.” This calculation `sin(angle * π / 180)` provides the sine of your angle.
  • Cosine Value: Displayed under “Cosine Value,” it utilizes `cos(angle * π / 180)` to find the cosine.
  • Angle in Radians: Appears in the field labeled “Angle in Radians,” calculated as `angle * π / 180`, along with a “rad” suffix.

Each result is displayed with the level of precision you selected in Step 2.

Conclusion

By following these steps, you can easily determine the trigonometric values and radians equivalent of any angle within the specified range using the Tangent Calculator. Always verify that you have input the correct angle and selected the desired decimal precision to get accurate results.
