Find the Exact Value cot(360)

Problem

cot(360)

Solution

1. Identify the definition of the cotangent function in terms of sine and cosine.

cot(θ)=cos(θ)/sin(θ)

2. Determine the values of cosine and sine at 360 using the unit circle.

cos(360)=1

sin(360)=0

3. Substitute these values into the cotangent formula.

cot(360)=1/0

4. Conclude that since the denominator is zero, the expression is undefined.

Final Answer

cot(360)=undefined
