Cot
  • Cot[ z ] gives the cotangent of z.
  • Mathematical function (see Section A.3.10).
  • The argument of Cot is assumed to be in radians. (Multiply by Degree to convert from degrees.)
  • .
  • Cos[ z ]/Sin[ z ] is automatically converted to Cot[ z ]. TrigFactorList[ expr ] does decomposition.
  • See the Mathematica book: Section 3.2.6.
  • See also: ArcCot, TrigToExp, TrigExpand.
