Calculator result and MATLAB result are different

%% Question 1 - Step 1
CBT = [cos(24) -sin(24) 0 779 ; sin(24) cos(24) 0 599 ; 0 0 1 0 ; 0 0 0 1] % The definition of frame {C} in {B} 
CP = [100 ; 100 ; 0 ; 1]; % Given position
BP = CBT*CP % Position of P in frame {B} 

Answer 1

[Irem ERSIN]

I understood the problem. When calculating on MATLAB, the angles are in radians, so I need to convert to degree.

Answer 2

[Alan Stevens]

Have you checked that both are using degrees, or both radians? The Matlab as you've written it is using radians (use sind(24) and cosd(24) if the 24 is in degrees).

[John D'Errico]

+1. And it would be rather surprising to me if one truly intended to compute the sin(24), where the 24 was in RADIANS. 24 radians is a relatively large number of radians, and an integer stongly suggests degrees were intended.
