The ATAN2 function is a mathematical function in Google Sheets that allows users to calculate the arctangent of a given set of coordinates. It can be used to determine the angle between a line and the x-axis, or the angle between two points on a plane. This function is especially useful in geometry and trigonometry applications. To use the ATAN2 function in Google Sheets, simply input the coordinates into the function and it will return the corresponding angle in radians. This powerful tool can assist in various calculation tasks, making it a valuable feature in Google Sheets.
