C# | Math.Atan() Method

Last Updated : 11 Jul, 2025
Math.Atan() is an inbuilt Math class method which returns the angle whose tangent is given as a double value argument. If the argument is NaN, then the result will be NaN. Syntax:
public static double Atan(double num)
Parameter:
num: It is the number that represents a tangent and type of this parameter is System.Double.
Return Type: Returns an angle Θ, measured in radians and its type is System.Double. Here the angle is always measured in radians, such that -π/2 ≤ Θ ≤ π/2. Examples:
Input : Math.Atan(1)
Output : 0.785398163397448
 
Input : Math.Atan(0.0)
Output : 0

Input : Math.Atan(-0.0)
Output : 0

Input : Math.Atan(Double.PositiveInfinity)
Output : 1.5707963267949

Input : Math.Atan(Double.NegativeInfinity)
Output : -1.5707963267949
Program: To illustrate the Math.Atan() method
Output:
1.26262725567891
