Hello Everybody
I type the below equation into ilogic:
Carcase_OAL_A = Tan(Corner_Angle_A/2) * Booth_Depth
Corner_Angle_A = 60deg
Booth_Depth = 635mm
I should get a value of 366.617 for Carcase_OAL_A
Instead I get -4067.38mm
I type it in like this:
Carcase_OAL_A = Tan(Corner_Angle_A / 2 ul ) * Booth_Depth
I get -4067.38mm again
I type it in like this:
Carcase_OAL_A = Tan(30) * Booth_Depth
I get -4067.38mm again
I type in this equation:
Carcase_OAL_A = Tan(Corner_Angle_A) * Booth_Depth
I get a value of 203.22mm
It does not let me divide the angle parameter within the tan brackets. When i hover the mouse over the tan function the example shows a equation within the tan brackets. Can anyone explain what is going on?

Hi @william
The Tan-function takes arguments in radian, not degree. Since your parameter is in degree you'll have to convert it its corresponding radian value. Like so:
Carcase_OAL_A = Tan(Corner_Angle_A/2 * PI/180) * Booth_Depth
