Hi,

Try the standard C header math.h which defines quite a few trigonometric
and other functions.  Note that the trigonometric functions work on
radians not degrees!

e.g.:

-----> Cut Here <-----
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>

float degreesToRadians(float angle)
{
   return angle * (PI / 180);
}

main()
{
   printf("Sin of 45: %f\n", sin(degreesToRadians(45))); 
}
-----> CUT HERE <-----

Hope that helps

John
