It is cosine*cosine*cosine.


Why is cosine used in finding ditance traveed on a latitude?

The distance along one degree of longitude is 60 nautical miles at the equator and less at latitudes away from the equator. In fact it is 60 nautical miles times the cosine of the latitude, so 60 at the equator zero at the poles, and 30 nautical miles at 60 degrees north or south..


Why is sine 30 the same as cosine of 60?

sin(30) = sin(90 - 60) = sin(90)*cos(60) - cos(90)*sin(60) = 1*cos(60) - 0*sin(60) = cos(60).


What is the cosin of 60?

Cos(60) = -0.95241 assuming that angles are measured in radians, as would be done by most mathematicians. If they are measured in degrees, the answer is 0.5


How do you find length of a hypotenuse of a 30 60 90 degree triangle is 7 cm what is the perimeter?

The length of the other two sides is 7 cosine (60) and 7 cosine (30)that is 3.5 and 6.062 cmthe perimeter = 7 + 3.5 + 6.062 = 16.562 cm


How many nautical miles in one minute of longitude?

60 at the equator, decreasing steadily to zero at the poles. In general: (60) times (the cosine of the latitude).


The inverse of the cosine function?

Inverse of Cosine is 'ArcCos' or Cos^(-1) The reciprocal of Cosine is !/ Cosine = Secant.


When current and voltage are 90 degrees out of phase what is the power?

Power in an electric, AC circuit is the product of Volts, Amps, and the Cosine of the angle that separates them. When the Amps lag behind the Volts by 60 degrees, the product of Volts, Amps, and the Cosine of the angle between them provides half the power that would otherwise be available without the 60 degree angle. At 60 degrees, the cosine is 0.5 and at 90 degrees it is zero. So the product of Volts and Amps whenever they are 90 degrees out of phase will result in zero power.
