How can I set trigonometric functions to give me the correct value from an angle given in degrees, I mean, if I'm using the expression STL*cos(73.7), with STL=524 mm and 73.7 is an angle given in degrees, the value is suppose to be 147.069, but in COMSOL it gives me 66.591 because it's taking the angle value as rad, but even if I do a conversion to my angle to rad it doesn't give me the correct result

Maybe you can write STL*cos(73.7[deg])? I have not tried myself.

You may also try STL*cos(73.7/180*pi).
