SIN
The SIN
function in Google Sheets returns the sine of an angle provided in radians. It is a mathematical function used to calculate the sine value of an angle.
Function Syntax and Parameters
Syntax: SIN(angle)
Parameters:
angle
: The angle (in radians) for which you want to calculate the sine value.
Step-by-Step Tutorial
To use the SIN
function in Google Sheets, follow the steps below:
- In a cell, enter the angle (in radians) for which you want to calculate the sine.
- Use the formula
=SIN(angle)
, replacing "angle" with the cell reference or actual value.
Use Cases and Scenarios
