    What is cot 0°?

    Answer

    cot 0°
    is undefined

    Angle in radians: 0° = 0. The point of the angle is on the x-axis: (1, 0).

    sin 0° = 0, and cot = cos / sin: you can't divide by zero, so the value doesn't exist.

    cot 0° = cos 0° / sin 0° = 1 / 0

    xyOP

    P(cos 0°, sin 0°) = (1, 0)

    Line OP of 0° runs parallel to the line y = 1: they never meet, so cot 0° doesn't exist.

    Cot 0 Degrees: Cotangent of 0° on the Unit Circle. cot 0° is undefined: sin 0° = 0, and cot = cos / sin — division by zero. Why, on the unit circle.

    FAQ

    What is cot 0°?

    cot 0° is undefined

    Why does cot 0° not exist?

    The point of 0° on the unit circle is (1, 0): sin 0° = 0, and cot = cos / sin would divide by zero. On the unit circle line OP runs parallel to the line y = 1 and never meets it.

    What is the sign of cotangent in each quadrant?

    Cotangent is the ratio x / y of the point of the angle: positive in quadrants I and III, negative in II and IV.
