Function
The Tangent of a number Math unit
 function Tan ( const Number : Extended ) : Extended;
Description
The Tan function is a mathematical function giving the Tangent value of a Number value given radians.
 
PI radians  = 180 degrees
Notes
The System unit supports only the following angular functions:

ArcTan
Sin
Cos

Related commands

Cos The Cosine of a number
Sin The Sine of a number
 
Example code : Get the Tangent of 45 degrees
var
  float : single;
begin
  // The Tangent of 45 degrees = 1.0
  float := Tan(PI/4);   // = 180/4 = 45 degrees
  WriteLn('Tan(PI/4) = '+FloatToStr(float));
end;
