    Angle (°)

    What is cos 110°?

    Answer

    cos 110° ≈
    −0.3420

    Angle in radians: 110° = 11π/18. The point of the angle is in quadrant II, where cosine is negative.

    ≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. cos 110° can't be written with square roots: 110° is not a multiple of 3°.

    cos 110° = cos(180° − 70°) = −cos 70° ≈ −0.3420

    P(cos 110°, sin 110°) ≈ (−0.3420, 0.9397)

    P(cos 110°, sin 110°) ≈ (−0.3420, 0.9397)

    Highlighted: the projection on the x-axis — cosine, x ≈ −0.3420.

    FAQ

    What is cos 110°?

    cos 110° ≈ −0.3420

    Why does cos 110° 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°. 110° is not, so no such exact form exists; the value is used as a decimal: cos 110° ≈ −0.3420.

    Why does a calculator show −0.9990 for cos 110?

    The calculator is in radian mode (RAD): it takes cos 110 as the cosine of 110 radians, cos 110 rad ≈ −0.9990. Switch it to degrees (DEG): cos 110° ≈ −0.3420. In radians the value is never undefined: π is irrational, so a whole number of radians never lands exactly on an axis.
