Part	Type	Description
result	Double	The cosine of value.
value	Double	The value (in radians) you want the cosine of.

Notes

The Cos function returns the cosine of the angle (in radians) passed to it. If the angle is in degrees, multiply it by PI/180 to convert it to radians.

Sample Code

This code uses the Cos function to return the cosine of an angle.

Var d As Double
Const Pi = 3.14159
d = Cos(45 * Pi / 180) // returns 0.707
