Java Math.atan2(double y, double x)
Syntax
Math.atan2(double y, double x) has the following syntax.
public static double atan2(double y, double x)
Example
In the following code shows how to use Math.atan2(double y, double x) method.
/*ww w .jav a 2s.c om*/
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// get a variable x which is equal to PI/2
double x = Math.PI / 2;
// get a variable y which is equal to PI/3
double y = Math.PI / 3;
// convert x and y to degrees
x = Math.toDegrees(x);
y = Math.toDegrees(y);
// get the polar coordinates
System.out.println("Math.atan2(" + x + "," + y + ")=" + Math.atan2(x, y));
}
}
The code above generates the following result.
