tangent | The REAL tangent value for which to find the arctangent. |
Return: | ATAN returns a single REAL value. |
The ATAN function returns the arctangent (inverse) of the tangent, in radians.
Example:
Rad2Deg := 57.295779513082; //number of degrees in a radian
TangentAngle := 57.74;
ArcTangent := ATAN(TangentAngle) * Rad2Deg;
OUTPUT(ArcTangent);
