The Math.sin()
static method returns the sine of a number in radians.
function getCircleY(radians, radius) {
return Math.sin(radians) * radius;
}
console.log(getCircleY(1, 10));
// Expected output: 8.414709848078965
console.log(getCircleY(2, 10));
// Expected output: 9.092974268256818
console.log(getCircleY(Math.PI, 10));
// Expected output: 1.2246467991473533e-15
Syntax Parameters
x
A number representing an angle in radians.
The sine of x
, between -1 and 1, inclusive. If x
is Infinity
, -Infinity
, or NaN
, returns NaN
.
Because sin()
is a static method of Math
, you always use it as Math.sin()
, rather than as a method of a Math
object you created (Math
is not a constructor).
Math.sin(-Infinity); // NaN
Math.sin(-0); // -0
Math.sin(0); // 0
Math.sin(1); // 0.8414709848078965
Math.sin(Math.PI / 2); // 1
Math.sin(Infinity); // NaN
