What is cot 14°?

Answer

cot 14° ≈
4.0108

Angle in radians: 14° = 7π/90. The point of the angle is in quadrant I, where cotangent is positive.

≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. cot 14° can't be written with square roots: 14° is not a multiple of 3°.

cot 14° = cos 14° / sin 14° ≈ 4.0108

xyOP

P(cos 14°, sin 14°) ≈ (0.9703, 0.2419)

C(cot 14°, 1) ≈ (4.0108, 1) — where line OP meets the line y = 1; C is beyond the drawing, the arrow points to it.

FAQ

What is cot 14°?

cot 14° ≈ 4.0108

Why does cot 14° 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°. 14° is not, so no such exact form exists; the value is used as a decimal: cot 14° ≈ 4.0108.

Why does a calculator show 0.1380 for cot 14?

The calculator is in radian mode (RAD): it takes cot 14 as the cotangent of 14 radians, cot 14 rad ≈ 0.1380. Switch it to degrees (DEG): cot 14° ≈ 4.0108. In radians the value is never undefined: π is irrational, so a whole number of radians never lands exactly on an axis.
