Trig Values Become Terrifying

Text on the meme

trig values: cos(60°) sin(30°) tan(26.5650511771°)

What it means

The clip starts with two animated characters labeled “cos(60°)” and “sin(30°)” looking at each other, then cuts to Dracula labeled “tan(26.5650511771°)” staring blankly in shock. The joke is that the first two trigonometric values are familiar and equal, while the oddly precise tangent angle feels unnecessarily complicated and terrifying. Coldplay’s upbeat, euphoric pop song “Hymn for the Weekend” makes the sudden reveal more dramatic and absurd, so the video works as a reaction to confusing math or overcomplicated calculations.
