Help with an Excel formula.
I'm trying to find the correct formula in Excel to find one angle in a right tringle. Given the hypotenuse of 5. One angle of 36.8699 deg. and of course 90. deg.
I input in a scientific calculator as,
"5 * cos(36.8699).
I receive 3.99999 which is correct.
In Excel i get 3.377285781.
I believe I tried a few things like =degrees(5*cos(36.8699)),
=cell r_c*PI()/180.
Still incorrect .
Any and all help with this simple problem will be appreciated.
Thank you!
