Cos 84 Degrees
Sin, Cos, Tan, Cot of an Angle
What is cos 84°?
Answer
cos 84° ≈
0.1045
Angle in radians: 84° = 7π/15. The point of the angle is in quadrant I, where cosine is positive.
≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. An exact form of cos 84° in square roots exists, but it is unwieldy — nested radicals.
P(cos 84°, sin 84°) ≈ (0.1045, 0.9945)
P(cos 84°, sin 84°) ≈ (0.1045, 0.9945)
Highlighted: the projection on the x-axis — cosine, x ≈ 0.1045.

FAQ
What is cos 84°?
cos 84° ≈ 0.1045
Is there an exact value of cos 84°?
Yes: 84° is a multiple of 3°, and the values of such angles can be written with square roots — but the expression is unwieldy, with nested radicals built from the values of 18° and 15° (3° = 18° − 15°). In practice the decimal is used: cos 84° ≈ 0.1045.
Why does a calculator show −0.6800 for cos 84?
The calculator is in radian mode (RAD): it takes cos 84 as the cosine of 84 radians, cos 84 rad ≈ −0.6800. Switch it to degrees (DEG): cos 84° ≈ 0.1045. In radians the value is never undefined: π is irrational, so a whole number of radians never lands exactly on an axis.
