The ACOT function returns the arccotangent of a number.
This function takes a single Number as input. It outputs that Number's inverse cotangent in radians.
Declaration
ACOT(number) -> arccotangent
Parameters
number (required, type: Number
)
The number to calculate the arccotangent of.
Return Values
arccotangent (type: Number
)
The arccotangent of the given number, in radians.
Examples
The following example returns the arccotangent of 0.5. This is given as a numerical estimation of the angle in radians:
ACOT(0.5) -> 1.1071487177940904
To calculate the arctangent in degrees, the ACIT function must be used in tandem with the DEGREES function, such as in the following example:
DEGREES(ACOT(0.5)) -> 63.43494882292201
