cos
angle
or
cos (
expression
)
Returns the cosine of angle or expression, which can be
real or complex.
An angle is interpreted as degrees or radians according
to the current angle mode. In any angle mode, you can
designate an angle as degrees or radians by using the
¡
or
r
designator, respectively, from the
MATH ANGLE
menu.

The squareMatrix cannot
have repeated
eigenvalues.
cos
list
Returns a list in which each element is the cosine of the
corresponding element in list.
cos
squareMatrix
Returns a square matrix that is the matrix cosine of
squareMatrix
. The matrix cosine corresponds to the
result calculated using power series or Cayley-Hamilton
Theorem techniques. This is not the same as simply
calculating the cosine of each element.
