| Description |
The Tan function is a mathematical function giving the Tangent value of a Number value given radians.
|
|
| Notes |
The System unit supports only the following angular functions:
ArcTan
Sin
Cos

| ArcTan |
|
The Arc Tangent of a number, returned in radians |
| Cos |
|
The Cosine of a number |
| Sin |
|
