Trigonometric Functions

acos()

Computes the angle in radians whose cosine is a given number, the output radians will be in the range [0, 𝜋]. If you need the result in degrees, which is in the range [0º, 180º], you can convert it using the degrees() function.

GQL
RETURN degrees(acos(0.5)) AS degree

Result: 60

asin()

Computes the angle in radians whose sine is a given number, the output radians will be in the range [-𝜋/2, 𝜋/2]. If you need the result in degrees, which is in the range [-90º, 90º], you can convert it using the degrees() function.

GQL
RETURN degrees(asin(0.5)) AS degree

Result: 30

atan()

Computes the angle in radians whose tangent is a given number, the output radians will be in the range [-𝜋/2, 𝜋/2]. If you need the result in degrees, which is in the range [-90º, 90º], you can convert it using the degrees() function.

GQL
RETURN degrees(atan(1)) AS degree

Result: 45

cos()

Computes the cosine of an angle expressed in radian, the output will be in the range [-1, 1]. If you has an angle in degree, you can convert it to radians using the radians() function.

GQL
RETURN cos(radians(60))

Result: 0.5

cosh()

Computes the hyperbolic cosine of an angle expressed in radian, the output will be in the range [1, +∞). If you has an angle in degree, you can convert it to radians using the radians() function.
