7 Trigonometric ratios on your calculator
There are various different units in which an angle can be measured, degrees being one of the possibilities. Before using your calculator to find the values of the trigonometric ratios of angles measured in degrees, you need to ensure that it is set to use the correct units.
Always check that your calculator is using the correct system of angle measurement before using trigonometric ratios.
