Cos 32 Degrees
Sin, Cos, Tan, Cot of an Angle
What is cos 32°?
Answer
cos 32° ≈
0.8480
Angle in radians: 32° = 8π/45. The point of the angle is in quadrant I, where cosine is positive.
≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. cos 32° can't be written with square roots: 32° is not a multiple of 3°.
P(cos 32°, sin 32°) ≈ (0.8480, 0.5299)
P(cos 32°, sin 32°) ≈ (0.8480, 0.5299)
Highlighted: the projection on the x-axis — cosine, x ≈ 0.8480.

FAQ
What is cos 32°?
cos 32° ≈ 0.8480
Why does cos 32° 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°. 32° is not, so no such exact form exists; the value is used as a decimal: cos 32° ≈ 0.8480.
Why does a calculator show 0.8342 for cos 32?
The calculator is in radian mode (RAD): it takes cos 32 as the cosine of 32 radians, cos 32 rad ≈ 0.8342. Switch it to degrees (DEG): cos 32° ≈ 0.8480. In radians the value is never undefined: π is irrational, so a whole number of radians never lands exactly on an axis.
