SIN

Description: Returns the sine of the given angle.

Syntax: SIN(Number)

• Number is the angle in radians for which you want the sine.

Remarks:

• If your argument is in degrees, multiply it by PI/180 or use the RADIANS function to convert it to radians.

• When used in an event analysis flowchart, Number must evaluate to a numerical value. It can include:

• Numerical values

• Standard operands (+, -, *, /)

• Predefined mathematical functions (exp, log, sin, etc.)

• Event analysis internal functions

• Event analysis resources

• References to any ReliaSoft Workbooks

Example:

• SIN(PI()/2) = 1 [sine of pi/2 radians]
