ACOT
The angle, in radians, whose cotangent is a number.
Group: Math. Compatible with DAX.
Syntax
ACOT ( <number> )| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
number | Number | Any number, read as a cotangent. |
Returns
Number. The angle in radians, above 0 and below pi.
Remarks
- For a negative number the angle lies between pi / 2 and pi:
ACOT ( -1 )is 3 pi / 4, whereATAN ( 1 / -1 )would give -pi / 4. ACOT ( 0 )is pi / 2, and so is the result for a blank.
Examples
