Hi,
I am new user of Smath and in order to teach myself a bit about this software I am trying make a simple calculation in degrees. However, I cannot find degrees? I cannot find Angle in the insert meny at all? What am I doing wrong?
Best Regards, Magne

you can use Insert -> Unit -> select "degree"
or shortcut ' -> select "°"

Sorry my question was inaccurate, degrees as 360 per whole circle not radians.
Thanks for the quick reply anyway!
Regards,
Magne

Thank you!
This is exactly what I am unable to do! How do I make the trigonometric function return degrees?
Do I simply type the unit after the result? ( I am sorry if these questions are really daft!?)
Regards,
Magne

Do I simply type the unit after the result? All numerical functions are approximations in computing machinery. Trigonometric function are in radian. If you want result in ° 1. click on the empty place holder of the result, 2. click on the unit drop down menu from the tool bar, 3. click on ° or deg ... scroll down for 'rad' if you want result in radian.

Thank you very much! Now I can make it work. I thought I had tried this but I probably used the input "position" wrong, I believe I simply typed it at the wrong place.
Thank you again, this is great forum!
Regards, Magne
