cotangent is the "old way" of saying Tan-1,ie the tangent who's angle is
=degrees(atan(896.96/115.74)) =82.647 -- paul remove nospam for email addy!

Cotangent isn't the ArcTan (ATan).
Cot = 1 / tangent tangent = sin/cos cotangent = cos/sin paul wrote: cotangent is the "old way" of saying Tan-1,ie the tangent who's angle is =degrees(atan(896.96/115.74)) =82.647 -- paul remove nospam for email addy!

This helped some, but I still need the azimuth. When I put it into a
calculator, these are the steps I use.596.96/115.74=5.15777, then I cotangent 5.15777=79.0275 which is the azimuth. Now how do I put this into excel? -- Lois Ann "paul" wrote: cotangent is the "old way" of saying Tan-1,ie the tangent who's angle is =degrees(atan(896.96/115.74)) =82.647 -- paul remove nospam for email addy!

Paul has given the formula before, with the original numbers of the post.
With the ones here the formula is: =DEGREES(ATAN(596.96/115.74)) Type this in a cell and you will get the result you expect. Miguel. "Lois Ann" wrote: This helped some, but I still need the azimuth.
