Mathematical Functions in Python | Set 2 (Logarithmic and Power Functions)
Trigonometric and angular functions are discussed in this article.
1. sin() :- This function returns the sine of value passed as argument. The value passed in this function should be in radians.
2. cos() :- This function returns the cosine of value passed as argument. The value passed in this function should be in radians.
Python
Output:
3. tan() :- This function returns the tangent of value passed as argument. The value passed in this function should be in radians. 4. hypot(a, b) :- This returns the hypotenuse of the values passed in arguments. Numerically, it returns the value of sqrt(a*a + b*b).
Python
Output:
5. degrees() :- This function is used to convert argument value from radians to degrees. 6. radians() :- This function is used to convert argument value from degrees to radians.
Python
Output:

The value of tangent of pi/6 is : 0.5773502691896257 The value of hypotenuse of 3 and 4 is : 5.0
5. degrees() :- This function is used to convert argument value from radians to degrees. 6. radians() :- This function is used to convert argument value from degrees to radians.
# Python code to demonstrate the working of
# degrees() and radians()
# importing "math" for mathematical operations
import math
a = math.pi/6
