Its cotangent
Xenus said:Whats sit(x)
Theres csc(x) which is 1/ Sin(x) and sec(x) which is 1/ cos(x). Yes it is the inverse of tan.
Not quite. cot(x) = 1/tan(x) which is the reciprocal of tan, not the inverse. The inverse of tan(x) is atan(x) (arctangent).Xenus said:Whats sit(x)

Xenus said:Argueing semantics are we?
Xenus said:No I got the whole equatio right I just occasionaly confuse the terminology. The only time that matters is if the specifically ask for the the reciprical or the inverse if they ask for cot it does matter what I call it as long as I get it is 1/ tan(x)

"la fonction réciproque" of f is the function g defined on Im(f) so that g(f(x)) = x and f(g) = y whereas "la fonction inverse" of f is the function x -> 1/f(x)
talk about possibilities of miscommunication..

Yes, it was a security feature in Ada that caused it.Snyder said:Although...Did they ever disclose the truth about the A5 disaster?
