The Python COS function is one of the Python Math function which is used to calculate the Trigonometry Cosine for the specified expression. In this article we will show you, How to use COS() function in Python Programming language with example.
The mathematical formula behind the Trigonometry Cosine function is as shown below:
COS(x) = Length of the Adjacent Side / Length of the Hypotenuse
TIP: Please refer Python ACOS Function article to find the Arc Cosine of specified expression.
Syntax of a Python COS Function
The basic syntax of the COS Function in Python Programming Language is as shown below:
|
1 |
Math.cos(number); |
Number: It can be a number or a valid numerical expression for which you want to find Cosine value.
- If the number argument is positive or negative number, cos() function will return the Cosine value.
- If the number argument is not a number, cos() function will return TypeError.
NOTE: The Cos() function will return the value between -1 and 1.
Python COS Function Example
The Python COS Function allows you to find the trigonometry Cosine for the numeric values. In this example, We are going to find the Cosine values of different data types and display the output
PYTHON CODE

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 |
# Python COS Function import math Tup = (1, 2, 3, -4 , 5) Lis = [-1, 2, -3.5, -4 , 5] print('Cosine value of Positive Number = %.2f' %math.cos(10)) print('Cosine value of Negative Number = %.2f' %math.cos(-15)) print('Cosine value of Tuple Item = %.2f' %math.cos(Tup[3])) print('Cosine value of List Item = %.2f' %math.cos(Lis[2])) print('Cosine value of Multiple Number = %.2f' %math.cos(10 + 20 - 40)) print('Cosine value of String Number = ', math.cos('Hello')) |
OUTPUT
ANALYSIS
First, We declared Python List and Tuple with some random values. Next, We used the COS() Function directly on both the Positive integer and negative integer. Following statements will find the Cosine of the corresponding values.
|
1 2 |
print('Cosine value of Positive Number = %.2f' %math.cos(10)) print('Cosine value of Negative Number = %.2f' %math.cos(-15)) |
Next, We used the COS() Function on Python Tuple and List items. If you observe the above screenshot, COS() function is working perfectly on them.
|
1 2 |
print('Cosine value of Tuple Item = %.2f' %math.cos(Tup[3])) print('Cosine value of List Item = %.2f' %math.cos(Lis[2])) |
Next, We used the COS() Function directly on multiple values.
|
1 |
print('Cosine value of Multiple Number = %.2f' %math.cos(10 + 20 - 40)) |
Within the last statement, We tried COS() Function on String value. As we said before, this will return TypeError as output
|
1 |
print('Cosine value of String Number = ', math.cos('Hello')) |
