Question

How to find the value of `cot 60.6 ^@`?

Answer 1

Use a calculator or set of trig tables to look up
`cot(60.6^@) = 0.563471`

Explanation:

Although the angle is close to `60^@` for which all basic trig functions can be determined manually, the angle `60.6^@` will require use of a calculator (or similar aid).

If your calculator does not have a `cot` function but does have a `tan` function
`color(white)("XXXX")`evaluate `tan(60.6^@)` and then divide 1 by the answer.
`color(white)("XXXX")` `color(white)("XXXX")`Remember `cot = 1/tan`

If your calculator does not support degree arguments for trig functions:
`color(white)("XXXX")` `60.6^@ = (60.6pi)/180 " radians" = 1.05767 " radians"`
