Enter angle in degrees or radians:


           
           
  

Calculate cot(pi/6)

cot is found using Adjacent/Opposite

Determine quadrant:

Since 0 ≤ 0 ≤ π/2 radians
it is in Quadrant I

sin, cos and tan are positive.

Determine angle type:

0 < 90°, so it is acute

Simplify Formula

Cot(θ)  =  1
  Tan(θ)

cot(π/6)  =  1
  Tan(π/6)

cot(π/6)  =  1
  3/3

cot(π/6) = √3
