Comment ça marche

  1. 1

    Enter the angle in degrees.

  2. 2

    Select the trigonometric function (sin, cos, or tan).

  3. 3

    The calculator computes the double angle (2θ) and evaluates the chosen function.

  4. 4

    The result is displayed with four decimal places.

function == 'sin' ? sin(2 * angle_deg * pi / 180) : (function == 'cos' ? cos(2 * angle_deg * pi / 180) : tan(2 * angle_deg * pi / 180))

Questions fréquentes

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.

Formules

Les mathématiques derrière cette calculatrice, écrites pour que vous puissiez vérifier le résultat.

Sine double angle

sin(2θ) = 2 sinθ cosθ

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

cos(2θ) = cos²θ - sin²θ

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

Cas d'utilisation réels

Simplifying trigonometric expressions

Use double angle identities to rewrite expressions in simpler forms.

Example: Rewrite sin(2x) as 2 sin x cos x.

Solving trigonometric equations

Convert double angle terms to single angles to solve equations.

Example: Solve sin(2θ) = 0.5 for θ.

Physics and engineering

Model wave interference and harmonic motion where double angles appear.

Example: Calculating the resultant amplitude of two waves.

Conseils et erreurs courantes

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.

Hypothèses et limites

  • Use the stated inputs and units.
  • Results are estimates for planning and education.
  • Check measurements and source data before making an important decision.
