Trusses Cosecant

Introduction to Trusses Cosecant

The cosecant function in trigonometry is defined as the reciprocal of the sine function. It is often used in the analysis and design of trusses and other structural elements to calculate tension forces in specific members based on the angle of displacement.

Parameter usage:

• θ= angle in degrees

Output:

• csc(θ)= cosecant of the angle

Data validation

The angle should be greater than 0 and less than 180 degrees.

Summary

This calculator provides the cosecant value of a given angle for structural analysis and truss design purposes.
