What is cot 41°?

Answer

cot 41° ≈
1.1504

Angle in radians: 41° = 41π/180. The point of the angle is in quadrant I, where cotangent is positive.

≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. cot 41° can't be written with square roots: 41° is not a multiple of 3°.

cot 41° = cos 41° / sin 41° ≈ 1.1504

xyOP

P(cos 41°, sin 41°) ≈ (0.7547, 0.6561)

C(cot 41°, 1) ≈ (1.1504, 1) — where line OP meets the line y = 1.

FAQ

What is cot 41°?

cot 41° ≈ 1.1504

Why does cot 41° 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°. 41° is not, so no such exact form exists; the value is used as a decimal: cot 41° ≈ 1.1504.

Why does a calculator show 6.2245 for cot 41?

The calculator is in radian mode (RAD): it takes cot 41 as the cotangent of 41 radians, cot 41 rad ≈ 6.2245. Switch it to degrees (DEG): cot 41° ≈ 1.1504. In radians the value is never undefined: π is irrational, so a whole number of radians never lands exactly on an axis.
