SIN

SIN(number)

Returns the sine of an angle.

number

The angle in radians.

REMARKS

* For an illustrated example refer to the page under Trigonometric Functions.
* This function returns the ratio of the opposite side divided by the hypotenuse in a right angled triangle.
* This function always returns a value between -1 and 1 (inclusive).
* The graph of this function is a continuous, repeating wave, with amplitude 1 and period 2PI.
* If "number" is not numeric, the #VALUE! is returned.
* The sine of a number is 1/CSC.
* To convert a number from degress to radians, multiply it by PI/180.
* To convert a number from radians to degrees, multiply it by 180/PI.
* You can use the ASIN function to return the angle in radians for a given sine ratio.
* You can use the COS function to return the cosine of an angle.
* You can use the TAN function to return the tangent of an angle.
* You can use the RADIANS function to convert from degrees to radians.
* You can use the DEGREES function to convert from radians to degrees.
* The equivalent VBA function is VBA.SIN
