COS(X) is a MySQL built-in function that calculates the cosine trigonometric value of a given angle in radians. For example:

SELECT COS(0), COS(1.57), COS(3.14);
  -- +--------+-----------------------+---------------------+
  -- | COS(0) | COS(1.57)             | COS(3.14)           |
  -- +--------+-----------------------+---------------------+
  -- |      1 | 0.0007963267107332633 | -0.9999987317275395 |
  -- +--------+-----------------------+---------------------+
