However, I cannot find degrees? I cannot find Angle in the insert meny at all? What am I doing wrong? Best Regards, Magne

Do I simply type the unit after the result? ( I am sorry if these questions are really daft!?) Regards, Magne

How do I make the trigonometric function return degrees? 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.

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
