Just a note:
PHP's atan2 function receives parameters in (y,x) and Excel receives it in (x,y) format. Just in case you are porting formulas across. :)
(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)
atan2 — 两个参数的反正切
本函数计算两个变量
x 和 y
的反正切值。和计算
y / x
的反正切相似，只除了两个参数的符号是用来确定结果的象限之外。
本函数的结果为弧度，其值在 -PI 和 PI 之间（包括 -PI 和 PI）。
yDividend parameter
xDivisor parameter
x 和 y
的反正切弧度值。

/**
* Given an origin point of (0,0) and a destination point $x,$y
* somewhere on an axis grid, compass() determines the compass
* heading(direction) of the destination point from the origin
*
* HOWEVER, atan2(y,x)'s natural compass thinks east is north,
*
* {135}-------{ 90}-------{45}
* | +-----[ +y]-----+ |
* | | | |
* | | | |
* {180} [-x] [0,0] [+x] {0} <--------- North ?
* | | | |
* | | | |
* | +-----[ -y]-----+ |
* {-135}-------{-90}-------{-45}
*
*
* SO, we simply transpose the (y,x) parameters to atan2(x,y)
* which will both rotate(left) and reflect(mirror) the compass.
*
* Which gives us this compass
*
* {-45}-------{ 0 }-------{45}
* | +-----[ +y]-----+ |
* | | | |
* | | | |
* {-90} [-x] [0,0] [+x] {90}
* | | | |
* | | | |
* | +-----[ -y]-----+ |
* {-135}-------{180}-------{135}
*
* FINALLY,` we check if param $x was indeed a negative number,
* if so we simply add 360 to the negative angle returned by atan2()
*

Делитель and Делимое should be visa versa:
Делимое is the dividend
Делитель is the divisor
Thank you in advance for fixing this issue. It's quite confusingHere is a function that will return a new point [Rotate around non-origin pivot point]
(x,y) is current point
(cx,cy) is pivot point to rotate
=a= is angle in degrees
$_rotation = 1; # -1 = counter, 1 = clockwise
$_precision = 2; # two decimal places
function returnRotatedPoint($x,$y,$cx,$cy,$a)
{
# http://mathforum.org/library/drmath/view/63184.html
global $_rotation; # -1 = counter, 1 = clockwise
global $_precision; # two decimal places
// radius using distance formula
$r = sqrt(pow(($x-$cx),2)+pow(($y-$cy),2));
// initial angle in relation to center
$iA = $_rotation * rad2deg(atan2(($y-$cy),($x-$cx)));
$nx = number_format($r * cos(deg2rad($_rotation * $a + $iA)),$_precision);
$ny = number_format($r * sin(deg2rad($_rotation * $a + $iA)),$_precision);
return array("x"=>$cx+$nx,"y"=>$cy+$ny);
}<?php
// if $radians is between -PI … +PI then
atan2( sin( $radians ), cos( $radians )) ≈ $radians
?>This function will return degree by vertex coordinates in general trigonometrical coordinate system where zero is located at position (1, 0), 90' at (0, 1), 180' at (-1, 0) and so on.
