SIND Sine Degrees Function

Section: Mathematical Functions

Usage

Computes the sine of the argument, but takes the argument in degrees instead of radians (as is the case for cos). The syntax for its use is 
   y = sind(x)

Examples

The sine of 45 degrees should be sqrt(2)/2 
--> sind(45)

ans = 
    0.7071

and the sine of 30 degrees should be 0.5: 

--> sind(30)

ans = 
    0.5000
