function == 'sin' ? sin(2 * angle_deg * pi / 180) : (function == 'cos' ? cos(2 * angle_deg * pi / 180) : tan(2 * angle_deg * pi / 180))Häufig gestellte Fragen
What are the double angle formulas?
sin(2θ) = 2 sinθ cosθ, cos(2θ) = cos²θ - sin²θ, tan(2θ) = 2 tanθ / (1 - tan²θ).
Why is the result for cos(2*45°) exactly 0?
Because cos(90°) = 0, and 2*45° = 90°.
Can I use angles in radians?
This calculator uses degrees. Convert radians to degrees by multiplying by 180/π.

Formeln
Die Mathematik hinter diesem Rechner, aufgeschrieben, damit Sie das Ergebnis überprüfen können.
Sine double angle
The sine of twice an angle equals twice the product of sine and cosine of the original angle.
Example:
Input: θ = 30°
Calculation: 2 * sin(30°) * cos(30°) = 2 * 0.5 * 0.8660
Result: ≈ 0.8660
Cosine double angle
The cosine of twice an angle equals the difference between the squares of cosine and sine.
Example:
Input: θ = 45°
Calculation: cos²(45°) - sin²(45°) = 0.5 - 0.5
Result: = 0

Tipps und häufige Fehler
Tips
- Remember that the double angle formula works for any angle, not just acute ones.
- For tangent, the formula is undefined when tanθ = ±1 (i.e., θ = 45° + 90°k).
- Use the calculator to check your manual calculations.
- Angles can be negative; the formulas still hold.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Forgetting to convert degrees to radians when using a calculator in radian mode.
- Using the wrong sign for cosine double angle: cos(2θ) = cos²θ - sin²θ, not cos²θ + sin²θ.
- Assuming tan(2θ) = 2 tanθ, which is incorrect.
Annahmen und Einschränkungen
- Use the stated inputs and units.
- Results are estimates for planning and education.
- Check measurements and source data before making an important decision.
