Trigonometric Functions in Java
The java.lang.Math class contains methods for trigonometric operations like cos(), sin(), tan(), tanh(), cosh(), atan(), etc.
Let us work around some of these trigonometric functions in Java −
static double asin(double a)
The java.lang.Math.asin(double a) returns the arc sine of an angle, in the range of -pi/2 through pi/2.
Let us now see an example −
Example
import java.util.*;
public class Main {
public static void main(String args[]) {
// get a variable x which is equal to PI/2
double x = Math.PI / 2;
// convert x to radians
x = Math.toRadians(x);
// get the arc sine of x
System.out.println("Math.asin(" + x + ")=" + Math.asin(x));
}
}Output
Math.asin(0.027415567780803774)=0.02741900326072046
static double atan(double a)
The atan() method returns the arc tangent of an angle, in the range of -pi/2 through pi/2.
Let us now see an example to implement the atan() method in Java −
Example
import java.util.*;
public class Main {
public static void main(String args[]) {
// get a variable x which is equal to PI/2
double x = Math.PI / 2;
// convert x to radians
x = Math.toRadians(x);
// get the arc tangent of x
System.out.println("Math.atan(" + x + ")" + Math.atan(x));
}
}Output
Math.atan(0.027415567780803774)0.0274087022410345
static double cosh(double x)
The java.lang.Math.cosh(double a) returns the hyperbolic cosine of a double value.
Let us now see an example to implement the cosh() method in Java −
Example
import java.util.*;
public class Main {
public static void main(String args[]) {
// get two double numbers
double x = 45.0;
double y = 180.0;
// convert them to radians
x = Math.toRadians(x);
y = Math.toRadians(y);
// print their hyperbolic cosine
System.out.println("Math.cosh(" + x + ")=" + Math.cosh(x));
System.out.println("Math.cosh(" + y + ")=" + Math.cosh(y));
}
}Output
Math.cosh(0.7853981633974483)=1.3246090892520057 Math.cosh(3.141592653589793)=11.591953275521519
