The Cosine Node takes a single Float Value, representing an angle, in degrees (°) or radians (rad), and returns its cosine.
Cosine is a trigonometric function, used to calculate the acute angles and side lengths of right-angled triangles. Trigonometry has a vast amount applications, ranging from engineering to astronomy. The most relevent to INCARI, though, is that it can be used to calculate cooridnates and distances within 3D space.
