making excel 2000 understand I have an azimuth
Posted by Matt on December 18, 2001 2:09 PM
I am trying to get excel to make a sine and cosine for me so I can determine northing and easting distances, but it will not calculate the correct sine and cosine for the angles I give it. How do I make it do so?

Hi
By default the sin() cos() etc expect the input in radians, so you cant just say sin(90) to get 1 to input in degrees use this degrees*Pi/180 = radians
change the value to degrees before it is inputted in the sin() function.
If you need more help let me know
