    Cos 11 Degrees

    Sin, Cos, Tan, Cot of an Angle
    Function
    Angle (°)

    What is cos 11°?

    Answer

    cos 11° ≈
    0.9816

    Angle in radians: 11° = 11π/180. The point of the angle is in quadrant I, where cosine is positive.

    ≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. cos 11° can't be written with square roots: 11° is not a multiple of 3°.

    P(cos 11°, sin 11°) ≈ (0.9816, 0.1908)

    xyOP

    P(cos 11°, sin 11°) ≈ (0.9816, 0.1908)

    Highlighted: the projection on the x-axis — cosine, x ≈ 0.9816.

    FAQ

    What is cos 11°?

    cos 11° ≈ 0.9816

    Why does cos 11° have no exact value?

    A trigonometric value of a whole number of degrees can be written with square roots only when the angle is a multiple of 3°. 11° is not, so no such exact form exists; the value is used as a decimal: cos 11° ≈ 0.9816.

    Why does a calculator show 0.0044 for cos 11?

    The calculator is in radian mode (RAD): it takes cos 11 as the cosine of 11 radians, cos 11 rad ≈ 0.0044. Switch it to degrees (DEG): cos 11° ≈ 0.9816. In radians the value is never undefined: π is irrational, so a whole number of radians never lands exactly on an axis.
