# Tangent

## Overview

![The Tangent Node](/files/0tMZkD782rt6O2PdWXQs)

The **Tangent Node** takes a single **Float** value, representing an angle, in degrees (°) or radians (rad), and returns its *tangent*.

## Attributes

| Attribute       | Type      | Description                                                                      |
| --------------- | --------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `Is Degree`     | **Bool**  | Determines whether the `Input` value is given in degrees (°) or radians (rad).   |
| `Default Value` | **Float** | The default value of `Input`, if no value is provided in the `Input` **Socket**. |

## Inputs

| Input             | Type      | Description                                                           |
| ----------------- | --------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| *Pulse Input* (►) | **Pulse** | A standard **Input Pulse**, to trigger the execution of the **Node**. |
| `Input`           | **Float** | The angle to calculate the *tangent* of.                              |

## Outputs

| Output             | Type      | Description                                                                                                                            |
| ------------------ | --------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| *Pulse Output* (►) | **Pulse** | A standard **Output Pulse**, to move onto the next **Node** along the **Logic Branch**, once this **Node** has finished its execution. |
| `Output`           | **Float** | The *tangent* of `Input`.                                                                                                              |
