    What is cot 330°?

    Answer

    cot 330° =
    −√3 ≈ −1.7321

    Angle in radians: 330° = 11π/6. The point of the angle is in quadrant IV, where cotangent is negative.

    ≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places.

    cot 330° = cot(360° − 30°) = −cot 30° = −√3

    cot 330° = cos 330° / sin 330° = (√3/2) / (−1/2) = −√3

    Half of an equilateral triangle with side 1: the hypotenuse is 1 and the leg opposite 30° is 1/2.

    cot 30° = (√3/2) / (1/2) = √3

    P(cos 330°, sin 330°) ≈ (0.8660, −0.5)

    C(cot 330°, 1) ≈ (−1.7321, 1) — where line OP meets the line y = 1, on the extension of the ray beyond O (dashed).

    FAQ

    What is cot 330°?

    cot 330° = −√3 ≈ −1.7321

    How to remember sin 30°, sin 45° and sin 60°?

    Write them as √1/2, √2/2, √3/2: sin 30° = 1/2, sin 45° = √2/2, sin 60° = √3/2. Cosines are the same numbers in reverse order: cos 30° = √3/2, cos 45° = √2/2, cos 60° = 1/2; tan = sin / cos and cot = cos / sin. Here: cot 330° = −√3 ≈ −1.7321.

    Why does a calculator show 7.4874 for cot 330?

    The calculator is in radian mode (RAD): it takes cot 330 as the cotangent of 330 radians, cot 330 rad ≈ 7.4874. Switch it to degrees (DEG): cot 330° = −√3 ≈ −1.7321. In radians the value is never undefined: π is irrational, so a whole number of radians never lands exactly on an axis.
