# Cos {{< image-center src="images/2_DevMode/vfx_editor/nodes/cos_1.png" alt="The Add Node" >}} This **Node** can be used to get the cosine of an input value. You can specify the value to use, or supply a [Node Inputs](#node-inputs), and the node will output the cosine value. When specifying the value, you can input it directly to the node input box, or you can input it through the [Inspector](../../menus/#inspector) window: {{< image-center src="images/2_DevMode/vfx_editor/nodes/cos_2.png" alt="The Inspector Window Inputs For The Add Node" >}} From the Inspector window you can also select the **Input Unit**, which is either Radians or Degrees. ### Node Inputs This node accepts the following the inputs: - ##### X The value to get the cosine of. If using a node input, the input must be a single value as vectors are not supported. ### Node Output The node will output a scalar (float) value.
