Raymno Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 I am trying to use the Sin and Cos functions on a V570 but am not getting the results I am expecting. For example, the Sin of 39 degrees should be about .6293. The output of the Sin function block with an input of 39 is .9637953. I checked other angles against my calculator and they were also incorrect. What am I doing wrong? A simple ladder used with only the Sin function block in the rung. I added a new rung using the formula function block and it to reported the incorrect result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emil Posted November 7, 2011 Report Share Posted November 7, 2011 The function works with radians. You need to convert first degrees to radians and then it needs ot work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymno Posted November 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 Emil, Converting to Radians first worked perfectly. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
