    What is cot 59°?

    Answer

    cot 59° ≈
    0.6009

    Angle in radians: 59° = 59π/180. The point of the angle is in quadrant I, where cotangent is positive.

    ≈ — rounded to 4 decimal places. cot 59° can't be written with square roots: 59° is not a multiple of 3°.

    cot 59° = cos 59° / sin 59° ≈ 0.6009

    xyOP

    P(cos 59°, sin 59°) ≈ (0.5150, 0.8572)

    C(cot 59°, 1) ≈ (0.6009, 1) — where line OP meets the line y = 1.

    FAQ

    What is cot 59°?

    cot 59° ≈ 0.6009

    Why does cot 59° 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°. 59° is not, so no such exact form exists; the value is used as a decimal: cot 59° ≈ 0.6009.

    Why does a calculator show −1.2110 for cot 59?

    The calculator is in radian mode (RAD): it takes cot 59 as the cotangent of 59 radians, cot 59 rad ≈ −1.2110. Switch it to degrees (DEG): cot 59° ≈ 0.6009. In radians the value is never undefined: π is irrational, so a whole number of radians never lands exactly on an axis.
