What is Cosine?

The Cosine function, also written as cos or cos(x), reduces the hypotenuse of a right triangle to the projection onto the x-axis. cosine signal waveform with a shape identical to that of a sine wave it’s occurring exactly before one by four(1/4) cycle of the sine wave.

Cos θ = Adjacent side/Hypotenuse

The Cosine graph, and their degree

degree convert to radians Cos x
0 0 1
30 π/6 √3/2
45 π/4 √1/2
60 π/3 1/2
90 π/2 0

Example 1: Generating Cosine wave

In this example, we will import the required module and set the coordination, after that we will draw vertical and horizontal lines to draw our cosine wave.

Python3




import math
import turtle
 
win = turtle.Screen()
win.bgcolor("white")
 
# coordinate setting
win.setworldcoordinates(0, -2, 3600, 2)
t = turtle.Turtle()
 
# Draw a vertical line
t.goto(0, 2)
t.goto(0, -2)
t.goto(0, 0)
 
# Draw a Horizontal line
t.goto(3600, 0)
t.penup()
t.goto(0, 1)
t.pendown()
 
t.pencolor("blue")
t.pensize(4)
 
# Generate wave form
for x in range(3600):
    y = math.cos(math.radians(x))
    t.goto(x, y)


Output:
