How do you put cotangent in a TI-84 calculator?

Answer 1

The TI-83 does not have the cot button, however, if you type 1/tan( then this will work the same as the cot since cot=1/tan.

The other way to do this is to type (cos(x))/(sin(x)) where x is the angle you're looking for. This works because cot=cos/sin

Answer 2

To input the cotangent function in a TI-84 calculator, you first need to ensure the calculator is in radian mode by pressing the "MODE" button and selecting "Radian" from the options. Then, you can simply enter the angle in radians, press the "2nd" button followed by the "COT" button to calculate the cotangent of that angle. Remember that the cotangent function is the reciprocal of the tangent function, so you can also calculate it by taking the reciprocal of the tangent of the angle.

Answer 3

Well, honey, you just type in "cotangent" followed by the angle you want to find the cotangent of, then hit the enter button on your TI-84 calculator. It's not rocket science, just basic trigonometry. So, go on and punch those buttons like you're playing a piano, and voila, you've got your cotangent value!

Answer 4

With most calculators, you cannot. Use the definitions:secant(x) = 1/cos(x)

cotangent(x) = 1/tan(x), and

cosecant(x) = sin(x)

All three functions on the right will be available on a scientific calculator.

Answer 5

Cotangent(x) = 1/tangent(x)

To enter cotangent of 45, for example type

1/tan(45)
