Hi,

I using trig functions (i.e. sine, cos and tan) and i wondering if there is
a way in excel settings so that i do not have to convert my input into
radians beforehand. I am using quite complex formulaes and adding Radians ()
or pi()/180 would add another level to the formula which i would rather do
without

It just seems silly that you have to convert the input to radians when
degrees is a much more common and easily understood unit system (well in the
UK, i'm not sure about the US).

Any help would be very much appreciated

Thanks

Not good news I'm afraid, have a look here
