# atan2

## Description

atan2 measures the counterclockwise angle θ, in radians, between the positive x-axis and the point (x, y).

## Input / Parameter

| Name | Description                           | Input Type | Default | Options | Required |
| ---- | ------------------------------------- | ---------- | ------- | ------- | -------- |
| x    | The x-axis value of the point (x, y). | Number     | -       | -       | Yes      |
| y    | The y-axis value of the point (x, y). | Number     | -       | -       | Yes      |

## Output

| Description                   | Output Type |
| ----------------------------- | ----------- |
| Returns the angle in radians. | Number      |

## Example

In this example, we will get the angle using `Math.atan2` function and print it in the console.

### Steps

1. Drag a `button` component into the canvas and open the `Action` tab. Select the `press` event of the button and drag the `Log.write` function to the event flow.
2. Call the function `Math.atan2` inside the `Log.write` function.
3. Enter the value to get the angle of.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.emobiq.com/emobiq-client/006-actions-and-visual-logic/action-reference/react-native/math/atan2.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
